Yep, I had the same experiences with my 1st 9000, an '87. The only way I could avoid getting oil on the mount was to fashion a curved trough out of a piece of aluminum roof flashing and hold it under the filter with one hand, while unscrewing the filter with the other! Putting the filter up-front makes it much easier to access, also. The only negative is that using a larger filter brings it closer to the downpipe. This won't deter me from fitting the 3" downpipe I've had collecting dust in my garage!
