For my 2018 6.2 i bought a Wix and a Hastings air filter from rock auto,($37 & $42) when i compared the two, they are exactly identical right down to the manufacturing marks in the plastic end caps, i pulled my stock ford oem air filter out to compare and the only difference i could find is the small extra piece of plastic that is on one outside corner of the oem. Number of pleats, size, depth and even color all look like they are made on the same manufacturing line.
