Part number tends to be tied to functionality of the item, Subaru may source the oil filter from 10 different factories and sell as the oil filter for a range of engines under a common name, replacing every engine manual where the number is mentioned each time there is a correction would consume a lot of resources. Since the recall states that corrective action has been implemented on the production line, it implies that aside from regional stockpiles all pumps going out are of updated type. Also, at $250 a swap, its unlikely the old pumps will be utilized without remanufacturing.
