I assume you have changed the seal at both ends (the small one doesn't come with the filter so gets ignored). If that hasn't fixed it then yes the housing is likely damaged from over tightening.

Hi 

I've has the sprite about 7 months now it was leaking a little when i got it, but now I've been told that i need to replace the housing altogether. I've had the oil changed twice since i got the car and it leaks a bit more each time.

Wouldn't have thought it'd be too hard to fettle one

Is this any good?

Get some O rings, that seal the bolt end, at the same time so you know it's in good shape.

 

Don't overtighten the bolt, the correct torque is 19Nm.
