If you got the MC filter it doesn't come with one. I haven't changed my o ring yet with no probs. I'm no pro and don't know how many changes you should go with out replacing the ring

I wouldn't change it without the o ring. I have several vehicles that I change out an oil element filter and every time I didn't replace the o ring... A leak.

Because someone took it out of the pkg. I haven't seen any suppliers shop without an o ring, especially Motorcraft.

I would go ahead and use the MC filter with old O ring and if it leaks then go to Ford and get their $5 O ring. Most it'll cost you is 8 oz. of fluid. Coat the old one with a little grease and put her on. Wrist tight is plenty. The O ring does the sealing not the threads.
