Contact NAPA Auto parts for a packet of gaskets and O rings for about $3.50. Auto Zone and O'Reilly's don't stock it. The real problem is removing the adapter to get to the gasket and O rings to replace them. It's a tight fit on my '91 Chevy Blazer.
my understanding is there is an "o" ring on the adapter where it contacts the block. once this ring becomes damaged, it's you're either gonna need to replace it or keep filling with oil!!
Check to make sure the old rubber gasket from the old oil filter was not left on the adapter before the new filter was installed

How do you fix an oil leak on a gm 3800 that is leaking around the oil filter housing?
My understanding is that it is not the oil filter housing leaking, that can be verified with a $2.00 replacement seal, and replaced by owner with a bit of ability, and tools, but it is more likely the timing chain cover that is leaking, with an estimated cost to repair of around $700, and that is mostly due to the shop labor for just getting to it.

How do you replace o ring on oil cooler adaptor for 93 suburban?
If you look at the bottom of the adaptor where the oil filter is you will see 2 bolt heads. I think they are 10mms remove them and pull the adaptor down and replace the gasket / o-ring. You may want to remove the oil filter first. Don't worry about the oil cooler lines, you can pull the adaptor down enough to fix.
What can be wrong if oil smells like gas engine is leaking at head gasket and sounds like sewing machine ever since fuel lines broke and had been replaced?
Gas is leaking into your oil pan. If the head gasket is leaking, it needs to be replaced. While the cylinder head is off, look for a cracked piston or worn rings which may cause gas to leak into the oil pan. If the gasket has been replaced and you had no piston damage or bad rings, then change the oil and filter.
