got an oil pressure gauge on it? Put one one and look at the pressure when this happens. Might be an oil pressure relief valve getting sticky but without a gauge we're all guessing.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

60 psi should not be a problem.

Does it only happen on the most recent oil filter, or has it done the same thing with previous oil filters?
Is it really a "spew" or more of a "seep" when it sits?
As mentioned, maybe a defect on the mating surface? If it were me I would start by pulling the filter and inspecting the mating surface for defects/flatness. Although those rubber gaskets are pretty forgiving...

either the filter mounting gasket is leaking (get a new filter, not a Fram) or the thin gasket under the big mounting bolt head is leaking in which case get the 3 piece gasket set from MP & undo everything/clean/reinstall.
