I'm thinking that the "s" stands for short. Evidently most all applications went to the longer filter. It went from under 3" to over about an extra inch translating into more filter capacity. According to the guys at the site below it went through several improvements and is currently (June-2012) now this number

KOHLER 5205002-S1 OIL FILTER, EXTRA CAPACITY

ok, now here is a good bit on an Amazon review of

KOHLER 52 050 02-S1 by "Clint"

Kohler in their infinite wisdom has changed contractors in the construction of their oil filter. The black filter shown in the photograph may not be what is sold this year. They are selling a yellow painted filter using a Champion Laboratories "Eco" design. A quality oil filter has a metal interior with holes to allow the oil to flow through it. This metal cyclinder supports the paper filter element. The "eco" design uses a plastic grid with large openings. This does not fully support the filter and allows pieces of the filer element to pass into the engine. This naturally causes blockages which leads to engine failure. If you want a quality oil filter for your Kohler engine, use a Purolator L10241 (or PL10241) or the Wix 51348 as substitutes for this filter. The Champion Laboratores "Eco" design is probably worse than a Fram oil filter. I would give the currently sold "eco" filter a zero stars if that was possible.
