Inspected fuel filter

Fixed a few things on my 99, couple of oil leaks, and low boost problems. She's definitely burning some oil, was pretty hard to tell with all the snow blowing up from my tires. I just replaced the fuel filter a couple of weeks ago and wanted to open it up and take a quick look at the filter to see if there was any oil in it, it should re-seal ok when I retighten it?

What he said. It should not be a problem.

Are you saying it did not reseal?

Pics of the problem, if any, might help.
