I have a 2007 25 hp Merc and as I was winterizing it today I thought I would get a part number for an oil filter. Needless to say I can not find an oil filter?? And just to add to the confusion I couldn't see where there would be an air filter. Any help would be appreciated, funny thing is I build machinery and I am always working on machinery but this seems so simple I am embarrassed to post this. Also the wife's filing system seems to have sent my owners manual off to the Twilight Zone :(

There is not much dust on the water so marine engines don't need air cleaners. Probably why you can't find one.

I have the same motor, but a year older. You can use a Mercury 35-822626Q04, mercury 35-822626Q05, or a Fram PH6017A oil filter. But measure before using the filter. If the new filter is even slightly larger in circumference than the oem then it won't work. Part of the casing is ground down to make the filters fit and it is barely enough for the oem anything larger will not go on. Yep, no air filters on boat motors.
