I would hope so...I'd rather dirty unfiltered oil than no oil at all.

I disagree, if you use one of the oil filter magnets that John sells at Expedition Exchange, you can see the proof of their benefit, just cut open your old filter before you remove the magnet, The proof is in the can.

Will a K&N bypass if it won't allow oil-flow?
Yes it will by pass.

Sure, it will concentrate most of the ferrous metal where the magnet is. But...it would have been trapped by the filter media anyway so the net benefit is zero. Am I missing anything?
