Scenic 1 1.9 DCi - Wrong oil filter? - helmet

Bought a filter for my Scenic 1, 1.9 DCi from a reputable E.Bay seller, and he has supplied me with a Crosland filter 501745388, which according to the Crosland site is the correct filter for my car.

However, the current filter is a Misfat Z692, which is half the diameter of the Crosland one.

Now I'm convinced that they have sent me the wrong filter for the 2nd time, and I'm not a happy bunny, despite the Crosland site saying it is the correct filter. (Google both and you'll see what I mean.)

What should I do next?

Oil filters from different manufacturers can be different shapes and sizes even though they are for the same application. The important parts are the thread and the sealing ring, if they are the same then the filter should fit.
