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
Perhaps the sealing o ring is on the wrong groove thus preventing it from sealing correctly?
