Default Re: Oilfilter loation/low oil pressure?

I am trying to understand the oil filter system. The fitting junction at the top rear driver-side of the motor is there to distribute oil from the oil pump. One goes to the oil sending unit while one goes to the filter. Is it really a three way junction, where a third passage goes to the motor? When you have a tee their without the line going to the remote bypass filter restricted, half or more of the oil is returned to the pan. This would filter the oil, but at the same time starve the motor of oil. Is it as simple as installing a re-stricter at the backtop of the motor in the line going down to the filter?
