FSM procedure attached.
Note that steps 18-25 explain how to reset the oil level sensor, based on whatever you put in the sump after draining & changing the filter. The oil level measurement system in this engine is a really terrible design, IMO. There's no excuse for it not being able to display an absolute level, same as you'd have on a - gasp - dipstick.
There is no requirement to prime the oil filter. Priming the filter is typically used on metal screw-on filters that are installed vertically from the bottom, as it's easy to fill those before installing on your old small block Chevy. I'm pretty sure "priming" the LR4 filter would do precisely nothing.
