Remote Oil Filter

Changing the oil filter on my starboard engine (CAT 3116 TA) is a PITA. I need to lie on top of the engine and reach down the outboard side in order to remove and replace the oil filter. I might be able to crawl between the engine and the hull but I would likely have to remain there until someone arrived to pull me out by the ankles.

I know there must be a remote kit which would allow me to move the offending appendage to the inboard side. I can't find one online or on the CAT website. Any ideas?

Thanks
