While I am not really a Ford guy I have owned a few. One was a 1976 Ford F250 4x4, these trucks were the first of the Factory High Boy trucks. Came with a factory lift kit and such. This truck was equiped aith a 390 and it only had less than a 1,000 miles on it when one day driving down the freeway I toasted the motor. No warning no nothing, I wasn't paying any attention to the oil pressure gauge ( Factory one) it just quit. Got out and noticed there was oil every where. Had it towed back to the dealer and they fixed it under warranty, installed a new replacement engine. Two weeks later almost the same thing happened again, this time I noticed all of the smoke and got it stopped. Crawled under there and the oil filter was just hanging there, walked and got a new filter and oil and everything was cool until a week later and it blew another filter off. Now the explanation I got from Ford was that the check Valve was sticking and oil pressure built up very high and blew the filter. Ford replaced something ( Check Valve??) and it never happened again.

Now I don't know but could this maybe what you have going on?
