Good thing I bought a spiffy set of o-ring tools a few months ago... altho with that said, I don't change them every time. Camaro has 70k+ miles on it, I've changed the o-ring once & there are a bunch of new ones hanging on a hook in the garage. My Kaw ZRX1100 has 120,860 miles on it, gets new oil/filter every 3k miles & I've replaced the o-ring once in 23 years... in fact it will be it's 23rd birthday on Saturday.
Amazon is telling me the WL10050 doesn't fit a 2020 Explorer, yet the pic clearly shows the correct filter.
O-ring doodads:

I buzzed the business ends with a fiber deburring wheel to remove any sharp edges.

But this one makes sense and has worked well for me.

I bought the Ronin version. will be installing it in about 950 miles when it gets the 10k mile oil/filter change. Also bought some 6in tall ramps to make that chore easier.

Here's a thought you may consider. It works well for me. You can buy a couple to a few feet of clear plastic tubing that you can just push on the end of the UPR. Drop the end of the hose in your drain pan and you'll never get another piece of cardboard to put under the drain pan again. No oil spots on the concrete.
I always clean my drain pan with a solvent or gas before I put it away. I just pour it through the clear tubing into the pan at clean up. Everything is the way it should be. Nothing could be much easier unless you have your own oil drain pit.

Something like this:

Should come with the correct hose also. I picked up the 10.5 L version so I could also use it on the tractors
