Is it coming FROM the oil filter? you can tighten up the filter by hand, turn it clockwise as tight as possible by hand, use a cloth to help grip it, if it still leaks just fit a new oil filter - they come with a new rubber seal on them so will solve the problem - remember to clean up the surfaces the filter sits on , if they are left dirty it may still leak... ----------- If it is leaking from a crack in the engine then i'd need to see the extent of the damage before advice can be given. a little crack can be repaired with strong heat-resistant chemical filler and a drill, but a long crack is probably terminal for the engine block...

Make sure the oil filter does not have a double gasket. If the oil filter was changed and the old filter gasket stayed in place the new filter and gasket will not seal

Oil is leaking from where the oil filter screws in. Is that the oil pump? Only leaks when car is running, kind of pours out! I replaced the oil pan gasket and its leaking from that thing that te oil filter...

Did you check the old oil filter if the Oring is present when you remove it? If the not, the old Oring is still there, so, you have two Oring there, that's why is leaking. Remove the new oil filter and remove the other one O ring, the old one and then install it back, and don't forget to wet with oil the Oring before you install it back. ok

My oil is leaking from right below where the filter screws on

The oil filter sometimes starts leaking from old age, and if its been a while since your last oil change, just have your oil changed. On the other hand, your filter could be loose. Grab a rag in your hand and try and tighten the filter by turning it to the right. If it's loose, tighten it hand tight.

Oil leak from oil filter

There is an "O" ring between the Oil filter housing and the adapter that will leak as well. Remove the oil filter and check inside of the housing for a large nut. Remove the nut and separate the adapter from the housing. Check the "o" ring between them and replace with new "o" ring. That's where mine is leaking and I've read a couple of others that had the same problem. The old ring started out "round" and has, over time, become flat. The new ring should start out with a flatter cross section that will seal better. Good luck! (Easy Fix, but finding the "o" ring may be a challenge. Check for the ring at the Honda Dealer as the Passport is the same basic vehicle.) Do it during the next oil change........

Oil leaking from some sort of plug above the oil filter

If the leak is coming directly from above the oil filter it is more than likely the oil pressure switch is leaking. The seal around the Oil pressure switch could have gone bad and now it is leaking.

The oil pressure switch is located right above the the oil filter and above the cooling system cross pipe.
