Default Need Help with 99 civic sir swap, blowing out oil

recently swapped out my b16a2 from my 99 Sir do to spun rod bearings. Used the same head and put in a del sol b16 jdm block. ran fine after starting it up, and once i looked under the hood i noticed it blew out about a quart of oil from underneath the intake manifold around the oil cooler. it has all new gaskets. any ideas what might have happend?

I know it seems pretty basic but is there a chance you didnt get the filter on straight and it didnt seal nice and tight? Like perhaps you cross-threaded it? Just a thought
