What is this??

Removed the top cover to the engine on the 16’ LR4 with the SCV6 and noticed the grey cylinder and what I assume is a filter? Trying to also figure out why it says Fomoco on the top of it, as in Ford Motor Company?

Oil filter housing, if I'm not mistaken ?

That's your oil filter.

Engines for the LR4 were made under contract by a Ford plant in the UK.

Ford was Land Rover's **** for awhile. We have been passed around. Leyland, Honda (sort of), BMW, Ford, Tata. I bet the next master will be Chinese.

I recommend you get to know that part well, as in removing it every 5000-7500 miles. Search YouTube for “Umberto LR4 oil change” and do your LR4 and your wallet a solid.
