Is there a reason you can't remove it, and stick a helicoil in there? Lot cheaper than a new one. Or call Cummins, give them your engine code, and see what less expensive. Repair or replace.

If your oil line in the filter housing is striped you are working with your pressure line not the return. It's just an alluminum housing it could be removed and retapped if needed. I know the later ones are an oring fitting but am thinking yours may be a pipe thread in your housing.
You would need new gaskets if you end up pulling it off. I would have a used one in the shop also if you weren't able to repair it.
