Agreed. If the intended use is oil filtration for a flathead,a 3/4-16 (if you want full flow) base is common and inexpensive...lots available online.
If bypass (original type) flow is needed,Baldwin makes a remote base that accepts their B50 filter. I'm running one on my '41 Merc.,mounted to the firewall.
