It's the color, but don't let that fool you, they are crap, probably the worst filters made. Get a NAPA gold or Wix for the win.

 

The ball valve on the block is supposed to be closed. It is supposed to only open if the filter plugs and pressure will force it open. The idea is that dirty oil is better than no oil. If you blew the filter off, and I have split open two filters before, it's because the pressure regulater valve in the oil pump stuck. I would check the oil pump and definitely get rid of that fram.
