Sounds a bit like the last oil change on my '94 Integra. In my case, step 22 would be:
22a. Rub oil on O-ring seal on cheap-ass Fram oil filter.
22b. Somehow lose said O-ring off the filter while reaching up under the intake manifold to install it.
22c. When oil filter doesn't feel right as you tighten it, check it again to ensure it's tight.
The words "Exxon Valdez" don't do justice to the situation when I started the car. Kitty litter is your friend.
