I too have never heard of the Mobil 1 oil filter filter media coming apart it’s hard to believe. I hope you are doing your oil changes on time on your Z? The synthetic filter media is the same on the K&N and Mobil 1 oil filters just a different spring,hub,and case. The K&N and Mobil 1 oil filters are both great quality oil filters to use on your Z. The only oil filter I ever seen where the media came apart was a Fram oil filter as the the Fram oil filters use low quality card board media. I would never use any Fram filter on my Z. You definitely want to choice an oil filter that uses synthetic media in there oil filters and a strong case a specially if you are going to be using an oil cooler on your Z.
