You haven't got to much oil In there have you?.....If not,I'd put a small amount \\;of non-hardening sealant on the cover.

Guess you're unlucky.....just changed my oil and didn't bother to change the 'o' ring, and no problems...put loctite on the screws,but I doubt If the holes go right through to let oil through.......don't know what else you're problem could be....unless you've got the wrong 'o' ring (check with the old one)....or the surfaces aren't true,which would be odd.

Lay it flat on the floor and make sure it's not warped. If it is, that could be part of your problem.

You could be overtightening the screws, they only need 5-8lbs. of torque.
