I changed oil the other night and after finding a very loose oil filter I thought that the oil leak previously dripping from filter was fixed. Today I warmed up the engine more than the last few days only to find the same oil leak after the engine warmed up. I checked filter and everything looks tight. It seems oil is collecting on the top rim of the filter on the passenger side of the engine. I am unable to see a source of oil leaking above almost like its coming from the filter itself. I really think its oil cooler seals but could it be coming from filter? The mating surface bw filter gasket is really small. Any help troubleshooting is appreciated before I tackle seals.
