Default 3.6l Pentastar Oil filter plug instead of Bypass Valve + oil mix

Hi!!! all

I recently bought a 2012 Journey SXT 3.6l Pentastar and I'm almost ready to go on the road
and I have remove the filter and saw that the Bypass Valve is not there. So I went
to the dealer and I'm waiting to have it. But in the mean time I check the old filter
to discover that it has a plug in the head part going into the cap. Very strange isn't it.

Could someone comment on this one, as I never been able to find any indication
nor information of this filter. I include photos of the filter + the adapter.

And if I may, is it bad to mix 5l of " Pennzoil Ultra Platinum Full Synthetic 5W-30"
and 1l of " Pennzoil Platinum Full Synthetic 5W-30" cause they don't have
the ULTRA in 1l where I go.

Thanks for your help.
