I have scoured the manual and can't find the OEM part number for the oil filter. I want to change the oil before I put it up for the winter. I know I can cross reference the original part number to a compatible oil filter, but I can't find the original mercruiser part number. I hope someone can help me out. I have a Suntracker Party hut 30 with a 2007 Mercruiser 135hp 3.0L inboard/outboard.

It is just a standard old chevy oil filter for a 4 or 6 cylinder, probably around 1960-70 or even into the 80's and 90's.
I have a 2007 135 hp 3.0L chevy engine and I run a xg30 Fram oil filter. I would stay away from the ultra cheap filters.
But the marine filter that came on the engine when I bought it was not a great looking filter after I cut it apart. Paper was nothing special, looked just like a cheap automotive filter.
