Default PF44 or PF46

Went to buy a new oil filter and they didnt have an AC Delco PF44 on the shelf. The sales person says they are now the PF46.
Is the 46 the same as the 44?

Well, now, you can still get a 44...but it will be a UPF-44, which will do a better job of filtering for you than the 46. Worth the extra scratch, IMO, and all I use.

Yes, they are the same. The 46 replaced the 44.

While the UPF-44 (synthetic) is still available, the PF-44 has been discontinued. The 2004 Corvettes came off the line using the PF-46.

I use the UPF-44 but either will work.
