In the past there has been some debate as to whether the standard oil feed (t-piece where the oil pressure switch is) is before or after the oil filter. Unfortunately I can't seem to find the old thread, so I've had to start a new one, if anyone can post a link to the oil thread (about 6 months old) it would be greatly appreciated. Anyway I took a couple of pictures which show that the oil feed is from the oil gallery & therefore after the filter.

Rob if you have the visard book, i know there is an oil passage way drawing in there which would help sort out the issue if it is or isn't filtered for you.

I know, although several TM members disagreed the last time this came up, hence why I thought I'd post some pictures.
