Yup, it has been brought up that it's either Tokyo Roki or Wako but there isn't solid evidence.

Does your XL7 filter say Tokyo Roki on it?

Yes.

"Tokyo Roki Co LTD", along with their own part number- plus "Suzuki Genuine" and Suzuki's part number.

It looks (cosmetically) very much the same as the filter you dissected. But I guess that doesn't mean much as Suzuki could specify what paint/ artwork they want from any manufacturer.

Strange how the Kizashi's OEM filter doesn't say Tokyo Roki. My assumption is that it's made by them considering the air filter is also Tokyo Roki

Something else - Suzuki oil filter related (from a Grand Vitara forum, discussing H series engines - 2.5 and 2.7l V6). So not directly J24B related, but discussing problems with that engine and OEM/ aftermarket oil filters.

I worked a suzistore for quite a while and the vehicles that had aftermarket oil filters fitted to the H25/27 engines were doing timing chains and guides at and before 100K kms on average. They Rattled their guts off. 9 Hours labour plus chains and guides and the timing chain kits were a grand on their own.

The hydraulic tensioners slack off.

Cars that had genuine filters fitted since new sounded MUCH different with more K's than cars without them. If you cant find a filter where you live get one delivered, they arent very expensive and fairly sure the rycos are dearer than genuine ones anyway.

What type of oil used? Which filter was used? OCIs? Way too many variables and too vague to be meaningful IMO
