Default Oil filter hitting against oil cooler sandwich plate?

Fitted one of the mocal oil cooler kits and now when I tighten up the oil filter it hits against the hexagon on one of the hose adaptors that screws into the sandwich plate. The only way to stop it touching is to slacken off the adaptor so that the flat part of the hex sits parallel to the face of the filter rather than one of the pointed parts of the hex where the two flats meet (if that makes sense?), but that obviously means the adaptor isn't tightened up properly.
Anyone else had this problem? Anything I can do about it?
