does a '49 3800 have an oil filter???

sounds like a dumb question right???

I don't know if the motor is original.... I think most trucks in '49 came with a babbit bearing 216..... but this one appears to have a 235 stovebolt six.....

from what I can tell the casting numbers say its a '55 235.... but I'm not sure at all


does it have an oil filter???? if it does where is it at??? anybody know a part number???

also... should I go with non-detergent oil in a vehicle this old???


here is a pic if it helps...
