There's a marking on the fleece filter outer wall as the manufacturer is suggesting to lube the filter opening and to push until the marking is flush with the filter mount thread lip (PUSH and not twist, REPEAT, not twist, as you may destroy the tissue of the filter)
Failing to make the marking meet the thread lip will cause such leakage
