There's no reason to have to tighten an oil filter to that point. If you can't get it off and don't have any kind of wrench to get a hold on it just stab a screwdriver into it and loosen it that way. I had to do that on my dad's bike because whoever changed the oil last time really cranked down the filter. I couldn't even loosen it with the oil filter wrench I have.
