'83 240D Oil filter housing gasket failure!

Twice now, the gasket on my 1983 240D oil filter housing has failed, causing my beloved car to spew oil all over the firewall and dumping quarts in mere seconds! Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? STP oil filter and Mobil Delvac 15w-40. Once it happened when warming up, and once about 1/10th of a mile down the road.
