Anyone change their own oil folks?

I changed mine last weekend, and noticed something about the filter that was a little surprising to me. I bought a bunch of K&N cartridge oil filters for the LLT. When I tooks the OE filter out and looked it over, I noticed that the writing on the metal part of the OE and the KN appeared to be identical. Same font, same English and French, same numbers.
Do you think 3Chevy put K&N oil filters in at the engine factory, or does the same company make them for both GM and K&N?
