Unfortunately, no. Sharkbite hit the nail on the head: You're not a manufacturer, you're just making and registering your own silencer. To be a manufacturer you'd need a Type 7 or Type 10 FFL along with a Class 2 SOT.
Once someone builds their Form 1 silencer they can't switch out any parts on that silencer that the ATF considers "silencer parts" (usually internal baffles) since that person isn't a licensed manufacturer of NFA firearms. And the ATF sees the filter on a oil filter silencer as a silencer part since it's basically the baffle assembly.
