find a 9/16" alan key, cut it about 2" long
find a 9/16" wrench
buy a new o-ring set.

use cut alan key and insert into filter adapter
use wrench to loosen, may need a breaker bar
remove and clean old o-ring material
replace with new and put it back together

That works and I believe there is also a writeup in the tech sticky.
