Yea, for my El Camino, the filter points straight down on the bottom of the engine. I prefill the filter some with oil, and I wet the rubber gasket with some oil. Turn it 3/4 of a tun more from where the rubber ring first touched the engine.

The 911 as we all know has the filter at a 90 degree angle, and it is a dry sump system, so no prefill. Just cleaning up the oil mess from taking the old oil off is enough oil in that area.
