No don't put any other filter in the feed side. Get the correct gauze filter from the club spares. It's listed under oiltank and there's a good picture. It pushes into the feed pipe in the oiltank.

Re: 56 oil filter
Dave 16mct is recommending what I agree with. There are others who have fitted other filters, if you do a search you may find these threads. Personally, I stick with the factory setup and the factory recommended oil. Alternative filtering arrangements may be tied to using modern oils BUT this is a minefield as you'll see if you do a search on that topic. There are many views and disagreements about it.
