Default oil filter leak

I have a 1977 F-250 High Boy that is leaking from the oil filter and I cant get it to stop. I have tryed titening the filter, changing the filter and nothing is working. Does anyone have any seggestions for me? Anything would help. Thanx

Are you positive it's the filter mounting? The reason I ask is because if I remember correctly, there is an oil pressure sending unit up there (8 cyl) and that could be the source of the leak instead of the filter. What engine is in there?
