Just a follow up on this. I changed the oil today. I used a standard Wix 51258 filter and put in a total of 6 qts. Ran it for about 10 minutes checking for leaks then let it sit for another 10 minutes or so. Interestingly, that filled it right to the full line on the dipstick. So even with essentially 100% aftermarket parts all mixed together, it turned out correct.

On a side note, I also collected a sample to send for analysis.
