" As you can see I have a variety of filter wrenches "
I don't see a leather belt. A leather belt will do in a pinch.

Probably was. I know I didn't pay a lot for it.
Those yellow handle rubber strap wrenches is what I use for the oil filter.

Get a fibre belt wrench they fit all filters, buy a good one and it will last a lifetime!

Plain old fashion strap wrench does the trick for me.

After destroying several strap types I've settled on this one and am very happy with it. You can use as large/long of a handle as you want and it grips without slipping. The very large "pliers" type are also handy to grab the filter when it comes free as it is usually slippery from oil.

 Me too! It fits every filter on the MH except the generator fuel filter.

This is my go to tool for removing filters. Just slide it all the way to the top of the filter where it won’t crush. Add an extension and breaker bar and take off the filter.
This wrench will open large enough to use on the air dryer filter. Double duty!
