Been there.. The issue is the vortex of oil inside the filter and the high pressure that washes the contaminants off the magnets if it collects.

The sump is the only place where an MCD is effective. Trust me on that. I only have about 3 years of my life invested in it. You'll also have one hell of a time sealing it from leakage.
