is it possible someone cross-threaded the oil filter on there? Or perhaps one of the hoses between there and the oil pump has a puncture? Think about it this way, oil is pressurized coming out of there, so it is something relating to oil pressure, so you can narrow your problem down slowly from there. Can you get under the car and try to find where it is coming from? I would say wipe all the oil away, start it up and turn it off, then get back under and see where the source of the oil is.
