Is the black rubber piece supposed to be wet or oily in the package?

I think it may have some silicone spray on the rubber to keep it from sticking to the packaging. As long as the filter media is dry you shouldn't have any problems.

Why does Amazon tell me this will not fit my 2012 mustang (5.0L) when the model number matches Ford's database for this filter?

It told me the same thing for my 2013 v6 mustang and I ordered it anyway...it fit just fine. Suggest go with what Ford says...Amazon database likely in error.

Use this one!

Don't mess with the air filter or try to innovate. This one works perfectly, and don't create problems. I was using one from H&N and it cost me thousands of dollars in repairs.

NIce filter

This filter is identical to the one that came with the car when I bought the car new. Seems like a good filter and the price is competitive.
