Well I am glad I asked then.
Someone spit off some filter part numbers and let me double check mine.
P.S. I use the OEM Mazda filter. Not sure how that could be wrong. In the past I have used Fram, but was flamed away from those sometime ago.
Wait, Hold On, I'll Search.

Ok, I am using the correct filters. Don't scare me guys.
Searched a bit and others have had some leakage issues too, when removing the filter.

Read pages two and some of three. I always end up changing the oil once it is warm (due to me running out and buying the supplies), so I guess I will always have some drippage.
