Saikou Mitchi can quick question

I just installed it last weekend, and the past two days I saw oil spots in my driveway...figured it was a loose filter since I did the oil change at the same time but the pcv side of the catch can drain is whats leaking. I closed both drains, the intake side is clean but the pcv side is dripping very slowly, did I do something wrong and is it normal to have that much oil coming out of it already? I'm guessing I somehow didn't get the drain tight enough? But theres a spot the size of a half dollar, seems like a lot of oil for just a weeks worth of the catch can.

Got under the car this afternoon to make sure it was tight, noticed theres a sheen all over the bottom of the can...doesn't look like its dropping down from the top. Anyway that maybe the thread for the brass drain is somehow seeping?
