This sounds pretty snarky and un-nice to me.

Did you read anything in this thread? I've no idea why It leaked the first time, the cap was on, the filter housing was not loose. My only guess is the o-rings either moved when replacing the filter housing or they were old enough to allow oil past. Also the problem did not magically fix its self, I got a new filter, new o-rings, an a new serpentine belt, after cleaning up all the oil, I replaced all the parts. no issues with oil since.
