Funny story, I just did my oil change today and forgot to pick up an extra o-ring. When I put everything together and started her oil was leaking out around the old o-ring on the oil filter cap. I knew the bolts were fragile but I thought to myself "Hey self, maybe you should tighten that down a little more. Ended up snapping a stud and wasting three quarts of oil. After a nice long drive to the dealer for a new stud and o-ring I was back on the road before dark. But what a pain in the ass.
In my humble experience, I have found the torque values for smaller bolts to be highly suspect (cover bolts especially). Snug them up using a short ratchet wrench and keep an eye on them. Check the tension over the first few days, and tighten them further, if necessary.
