Default What is the filter canister located above the oil filter canister?

I was changing the oil when I noticed a filter canister directly above the oil one. I have changed the oil on the 3.6l numerous times and usually crawl from the passenger side but today I went through the driver side. That is how I saw it and immediately grab a camera to help id the part. Here is a photo.

Does any here have access to EKTA to lookup the part number of the canister with the red arrow? Thanks

I was able to attain more information from EKTA(Russian version) about the part I highlighted above. The canister is part of the oil cooler.
My question now to ya'll, is the filter inside the canister required to be replaced during each oil change?
Thanks.
