To change the oil filter on a Craftsman lawn tractor, you will first need to locate the oil filter, which is typically located near the engine. Next, using an oil filter wrench, carefully loosen the oil filter in a counterclockwise direction until it can be removed by hand. Be sure to have a drain pan ready to catch any oil that may spill out. Once the old oil filter is removed, simply screw on a new filter in a clockwise direction, ensuring it is securely tightened.
I presently have a Deustch Oil Filter D366 on my (Sears) Craftsman Lawn Tractor.

Depends entirely on which craftsman lawn mower you're referring to.
It may or may not. Look closely and you will find it if it has one.
