The "filter" is merely a metal fabric in the line. It is very similar to the "filter" in an automatic trans cooler (although they have different jobs), it is not changeable. It's only job is to collect large amount of oil and drain back when the vehicle is turned off and cooled down. The vaporized oil that makes it passed the filter passes through the catch can where it separates...

I suppose if you really wanted to clean it then you simply remove it from the car and spray brake cleaner backwards through the line. But if you ever got one gunked up or clogged due to oil coking then you probably have bigger issues. lol
