I was asked from my partner if we (also) have an additional screen filter besides the normal oil filter.

The reason for the question:  In a PIPER owned by his son horrible things were found in the screen filter

There’s a suction screen for the oil pump in the oil sump.  It should be checked every oil change, but is often overlooked by some.  Lack of easy access might be the reason.

Ha that lack of easy access is way understated.  Damn knuckle biting curing vocabulary expansion nightmare i tell you and make damn sure you have a new crush washer to go on there or the used one that’s on there now will leak and you get to clean that mess up until next oil change as there is no way you are going to swap that old crush washer for new before all the oil runs out.
