^^^^^Isn't that the 6.7l filter?
Looks like a "Lifetime Fuel Filter" on the 6.2l, aka Ford wanted to save a few bucks. When I change a fuel filter I like to shake them up good with the fuel inside and dump them out in a clear container.(dump out the inlet) even with as little as 10k miles through a filter the amount of real fine dirt is surprising.

My understanding is, the fuel filter on a 6.2L is a life-time non-serviceable filter that is permanently sealed into the fuel tank according to my owners manual. And, the only way to get a new fuel filter, is to buy a new fuel tank.

6.2 fuel filter?
Can't say I'm a fan of that design either. Even if it will last a lifetime I prefer easy access and the ability to replace it cheaply.

That's like saying you want easy access to replace the connecting rods....

A few years ago I purchased a 2015 F350 supercab with the 6.2L engine. I am the second owner.
The previous owner installed a Ford OEM in-line fuel filter, the same filter I have on my 2002 F350 with the 6.8L V10.
No idea why the previous owner installed an OEM external fuel filter on the 2015 F350, but he did, and I change the filter on occasion.

Looks like FORD uses this filter on a lot of different engines, up to the 6.8L
