Tim, not really sure but maybe make a quick call to your local GM store and ask their parts guys about this particular filter.
Think you are right to question the application.
Let us know what you find.

I believe Pf48E has replaced Pf48..There may be PF48 still around but not many
The E is the replacement, I checked with the dealer last week when looking for a filter.

The AC Delco is a good filter, and I'm generally a fan of OEM filters on engines as that's the filter and flow rate the engine designers intended, but if you're running synthetic oil there's something to be said for synthetic filter media over paper media. I do believe the AC Delco is a fiber synthetic composite so a bit better.
Canadian Tire carries the equivalent Mobil 1 M1-107 for $13.99 when on sale here, which is about what GM wanted for the AC Delco here. I'm definitely a fan of Mobil 1 filters, having a good experience with Mobil and Champion Laboratories customer service, as I had a filter leak from new on my G35, and they sent me 4 complimentary replacements in the mail.
