Oil filter mesh types

Hi All,
While removing the oil filter I've punctured the mesh. So, I've bought a used oil filter from one on the online shops and I've got an oil filter with a different mesh, it's more like a screen. I've never seen this type of filter mesh but it's looks original. (maybe aftermarket part?)
Anyone know this type of filter? Can I use it on my R60/2?

Are you talking about the breather filter on the top of the engine?

I think he means the sump screen. Yes, there were different compositions of the mesh over the years.

I'm talking about the oil sump filter.

How many variations it have? All of them will fit 2 cylinders engines?
