Possible problem with oil filter change

Changing my oil for the first time, I had some problems with the filter. It took me a while to figure things out, but it boils down to someone using a non-OEM filter. It looks like the broke the spring loaded assembly that penetrates the center of the filter.

I need a picture of how it is supposed to appear. I think I have it back together correctly, but I'm not sure.

Also does anyone know if I can get a replacement piece for the top most part. It had a big spring under it and it looks like some tabs have been broken off. I think this happened because the previous filter didn't fit right.

I should have taken pictures because this is hard to explain verbally.

Much appreciate any help that can be offered.
