No, they keep the driver's side lower suspension arm rust free, I undo the filter over a piece of folded card to direct it into my oil catch can  :y :y :y

Did the oil change no trouble. A fiver for the filter which looked like it was for a truck and I had some HalFords oil I bought last month for 14 quid. Out of curiosity I rang round and cheapest I could get it done for was 35 quid.
