Oil Coming Out of Filter Housing Cap

Hello again. It got down to 25 degrees and while it was warming up, I noticed oil dripping pretty steady out the front, driver's side. I popped the hood and seen that it was coming out of the cap where the filter sets in. I tried tightening it as much a I could before I felt like it was going to break, but to no avail. I did the oil and filter/seal about 3k miles ago. This is the first time it's leaked from this. Would a cheap seal/oring give out in freezing weather? I have a new and better filter so I guess I'll just do another oil change. Just wondering if it could be something else, but the seal is the only thing that makes sense right now. Thanks
