hmm, leaking from the filter area eh? i've had problems with slightly leaking filters before. if you think you did everything right, then it's safe to take it to a mechanic ASAP! kind of stupid paying $30 to tighten a wrench, but it's worse to lose a car over a fuel leak! i've paid twice to have filters replaced, though i know i could have done it myself, when i tried the filters were SLIGHTLY leaking as you described. i think it's the fear of overtightening it and breaking the fuel line.
check the tightness again, and then bring it to the mechanic if you feel that everything is still tight. worst case you'll need a new fuel line as that could be what's actaully leaking.
good luck!
