No. there's nothing to worry about. After you drop the pan, the filter is snapped into the valve body. (May be on bolt to remove)

Make sure to remove any o-ring with the old filter and install the new one. And scrape the gasket mating surfaces on both the tranny and pan, if needed. Don't if it doesn't.
