I must have removed and replaced these pumps 50 times in the last 16 years on both the 616 and 617 engines and I have never had to remove the oil filter. But then I never read the manual either.

Whaa...?! You must be
magic...!
As for Mercedes, the W116
300SD service manual, section 07.1-200, clearly
states,
"(Step) 7 Unscrew
all engine oil lines at oil filter body, releasing clamps
for this purpose."
"(Step) 8 Unscrew
and remove oil filter body from crankcase (18-110)."
"(Step) 9 Withdraw
injection pump from crankcase."
https://handbook.w116.org/Engine/617/07_1-200.pdf
I tried for nearly an
hour to get my pump off the first time, before I resigned
myself to the fact I HAD to remove that oil filter
assembly. On four-bangers, it's not necessary; but on
the fives, it is.
On a related note, as I
was installing the IP onto the engine going into the Jeep, I
discovered that the seal around the plunger part of the ALDA
valve, uh, diaphram(?) was trashed, and probably has been
for some time. I wonder how it is on the engine in my
'79 SD....
