A common problem with leaking oil filters is that they were either cross threaded or the old rubber gasket stuck to the filter mount and now there are 2 filter gaskets there which could leak. As far as the oil sensor you amy be able to tighten it down after removing the wiring harness to make it stop leaking.
SOURCE: oil is leaking from a sensor that is near the oil
Tighten the sensor. Remove and clean the sealing area during your next oil change.

there may be a filter mounting block that attaches to the engine and has its own gasket - or there may be another oil filter seal that stuck from the last filter replacement.....known as "double gasketed" it will leak
SOURCE: oil leaking around or near the oil filter
Might have to take the filter off wipe the O-ring thats on the filter clean and the area where the filter will be going on to the block. Probably has some dirt where the filter seats on the block.
