theres some pipes around that area check their condition. Alternatively when you removed the old filter did its seal come with it? Had one before got stuck to the filter head and didnt notice it put the new one on over it leaked like a bitch lol

guesing its a 300 then have a good look at the oil cooler pipes where they screw in to the oil filter housing they have a o ring that can split

Check the oil pressure switch also, they sometimes start to leak oil from the end.
