oil leak

i have a stange oil leak coming from my oil filter. i checked the filter and its preyy tight and i cant see any oil being able to drip out around the seal. i also had a mild valve cover gasket leak(s) and now they appear to be getting a tab bit worse. im do for an oil change this week so that will help, bu iwas thinkin i have never taken off my crankcase breather, could this be slightly clogged and building pressure and causeing the weak points to leak more heavily??

I already had seen people put the new oil filters on and the old filter gasket not come of. So the put the new filter on and had the old gasket on also. It ddint leak in the beginning but as they got worn it started leaking.
