Why would oil be leaking from the oil filter of a 1996 Chevy Lumina. It seems like it has excessive pressure and is blowing by the oil filter seal?

I'm sure it's not a pressure problem. Bad gasket on the oil filter. That or it is possible when the old filter was taken off the gasket for it didn't come off with it. When the new one is put on it won't seal correctly. Go buy a new filter. Take of the old one and look at the gasket for defects. Also make sure there is no gasket left on the oil filter mount.

Your leak could come from any part in the system ,if your serp belt is oil soaked ,the most common cause is the output shaft seal behind the pulley on the pump. Another common leak located underneath the vehicle could be the return line which runs from the pump to the front frame rail the to the rack (very common for leaking) Also either pressure line or rack could be leaking .
