I believe it's a 22mm socket around the protruding bolt/nut thing that the oil filter screws onto. My browser is all jacked up right now and don't feel like troubleshooting it so not gonna type too much right now, but the below video should be useful as a visual.

I had the same issue, just a tiny leak... I replaced the oil cooler gasket on my last oil change, and still have the same tiny oil leak. Any other ideas?

I DID just start using Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage, can't see how that would cause any issues ~ I have heard a theory that the higher detergent oil would "dislodge" any crud that had previously plugged any leak that was present.
Update - knock on wood, no more leak. I’m now thinking the “leak†was just residual oil dripping from oil change and oil cooler gasket that was replaced.
