i think its a 22mm socket. remove the oil filter threading plate, reseal it with a new o-ring or use RTV. The thread where your oil filter screws onto, there's a 6 point hex that you'll need a deep socket to remove. It's tight, so you'll need an impact wrench or brute strength w/ a breaker bar. i bet that'll fix your leak.
worse comes to worse, and it still leaks, at least you tried this. If it leaks from the bed plate, well, im sorry. Fuckers probably didn't use anearobic to seal and/or didn't torque in sequence or to spec.
