Look at how sunk in the ADBV is in the holes closest to the stamped "20" (RED) vs on the opposite side (BLUE). That's no shadow, it stays consistent with all 4 turns. Sorry. I didn't want to draw all over the original photo. Here:
If the ADBV is slighty misaligned it's not going to cause an external oil leak on the can.
If you really want to know if it's the base seam that is leaking, put it back on the car and watch for the leakage while the engine is running.
Valid point. On her next OC, I may try this. Depends on the filter's fate I guess.
