I have never seen any oil filter which was installed the CORRECT way have any kind of tool marks on it. This was clearly put on wrong and severely overtightened.
 
i used the same exact filter on my new Pilot and it leaked. had to replace with an OE filter.

i searched the forum after i made this thread - https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/4672523 - and here i am. the OP's filter looks like damage. mine was mint. but, after removal using a wrench since it was hot, it didn't look so great. at first, i thought that's why the OP's filter appeared so wrecked. reading it more, it appears there was some sort of damage inflicted on the filter vs. a filter issue.

it is strange though that someone made a leak thread about the same exact filter just a couple weeks before i came on here to post about my issues with it.

This thread is over a year old ... check the OP's post date.
