1993 OMC could be a Ford 5.0L. If it is, than a FL1A oil filter will do. Fram 8873 would work as a cross reference for a GM filter. Beyond nicer paint there is no reason for a marine filter, especially if you change your oil like you should.

Many vehicles have an odd sized spare. 245 65 18 and 245 70 17 are pretty close in size. I bet the tire is marked temporarily somewhere. It’s extremely common in trucks with 20” tires to have 18” spares
Dry PT will work, if it’s actually dry, but I’ve never ever came across dry PT anything at a lumber yard .and PT is generally Twisted up garbage wood sold at a premium because it’s PT
Your electric fuel pump must be wired through an oil pressure switch per USCG regs. The coil will only have 6-9v on it through the resistive wire as well.
The steel jacks comparable to Harbor Freights Daytona are made in the same factory. One of the models is straight up identical. Snap on sued HF because they used that model as a direct comparison to theirs. And Snap on lost because it was proven that they were the same. It’s been several years...
