WOW, that's excessive to say the least!!!
Many of us here had very tight oil filters from the factory too, but I think this is the first one that caused a scar on the engine case.
Mine was an absolute bear to break loose, but it eventually loosened. There was clearance between the filter case and the engine face so there was no scar on the engine.
If these are fitted by hand those Japanese boys must be eating their Wheaties for breakfast
