Torque values

Does anybody know the torque values of the engine oil drain plug, oil filter housing and oil filter housing drain plug. When I changed the oil the filter housing and drain plug seemed awfully tight. So I ran them up snug, but wonder if I Should torque them to a higher setting. Thanks

I know the filter cover is 18 ft lbs or 25 Nm. I don't know about the other two but I'd like to know those also.

Thanks for your info... That's the torque that I was able to find out by searching other threads on this site. Also I found that the torque value on the drain plug is 22 ft. Lbs or 33 Nm. Hope this helps you. Thanks again for your help Papawhiskey.
