I think it's mostly MINI and some of the smaller 3 cylinder engines in the 1er/3er's over here in Europe. Maybe also the new B-series engines(?) but a quick Google search didn't really show me any plastic OFH's.

All of our N-series(N51,N52, N54, N55) engines have a metal oil filter housing(AL in the diagram). Only the filter housing cap is plastic.

My 135i N54 oil filter housing...
