One of two possible issues... Remove the exsisting filter, check that it's rubber sealing ring is still attached to the cartridge. Then use a flash light and a small pick, and check to confirm that a previous cartridge gasket is not become embedded in the machined seating ring of the mount. If so, remove the old gasket, and reseat filter. A second possibility is that the threaded cartridge mount is damaged, and is not alllowing the cartridge to seat fully against the machined ring.

Filter is located on driver side near the back of the engine (Pain in the rear to access). It is a metal type simmilar to an oil filter It has a water separator on the bottom of it.

Oil filter replacement on a cummins 06 dodge?
The oil filter is on the passenger side of the engine, about halfway down the block. Easiest way to get to it is with a filter strap, through the wheelwell. Loosen it until you can spin it by hand. Get underneath the truck, reach up and spin it off, you can pull it straight down without tipping it and making a mess. Reinstall from under the truck (after priming at least 3/4 full of oil) and lubing the gasket... Spin on until gasket hits the baseplate, and use a strap wrench to go 1 full turn past that (through the wheelwell).
