Did this start after a filter change?B  If so have you loosened and
retightened (no more than 3/4 turn after the seal contacts the filter
head) the filter?B  At the last change on my roadster for the first time
in 40 years I had a leak because the rubber seal hadn't seated
properly, and that was a gusher.

I have a steady stream, when the car is running, of oil seamingly from
the block right under my oil filter mount.
