Default RE: 4.3l question.

There most likely is an adapter at the factory location that is threaded on the pipe nipple at the original location. Should be a matter of unthreading the adapter and the oil filter should thread on where the adapter is located. There might be something else to it but I installed a remote filter on one of my cars and IIRC that was all there was to it.
