I just had a great big DUH! moment. Flordianson is was told correctly that no check valve is needed. A postive displacement, gear type pump would be self-checking. A gear motor is the same as a gear pump, for the oil to drain into the pan, the pump would have to spin backwards. The reason...

Many thanks to all the people checking into the oiling/filtering system. I haven't been replying much, some of the guys here are much better at researching the different filters and such. I like your possible location of a check valve, cranetruck. Looks like a messy job to pull the filter...
