5th gen trail 4runner oil change *strange noise* question

1st oil change on 5th gen 4runner trail.

ive worked with the "oil filter housing" system on other toyotas, this was a first with the 4runner.

Background: used Mobil 1 oil and Mobile 1 oil filter.

question:

has anyone ever heard a "squishing sound" during the final tightening turn when reinstalling the oil filter housing

...sounded like the oil filter housing gasket making the squishing sound during retightening.

this was during the final tightening turn when the metal tab was approaching the "metal arrow" mark where the tab should line up.

definitely did not sound like the oil filter housing crack.. more like the oil filter housing large gasket being "squished"

i am probably overthinking it and this is probably common / expected..but figured i may not be the only one whom may have this question/ heard this sound.
