Two oil filters?

Ok, I've had my new to me 06 Superduty for a couple of weeks now. I've read some threads that mention two oil filters in several places. Are there two oil filters? I know it's a simple question from a newbie but I'd like to get it right. I've got the 6.0 diesel motor.

Might be referencing an aftermarket oil bypass filter.
It does have 2 fuel filters though.

No there is just one on top of the motor its the big cannister with black top , the upper fuel filter is beside it . There are two fuel filters one on the frame drivers side right in front of the trans crossmember , upper one beside oil filter top of motor

Thanks guys! I know I don't have a secondary oil filter system. I'll tackle the oil change first and then the fuel filters will be next. The guy I bought the truck from told me I still have a couple thousand miles before the fuel filter is due. Oil change certainly looks easier than the Duramax I had. I ordered a Fumoto valve so waiting for that to come before I do the oil change.
