If I do the oil filter adapter orings do I need to drain all of the oil out I just did an oil change then realized I had to do that after and I was wondering if it's possible to do so without draining it all out

You don't HAVE to but you're going to lose some oil anyway and make a huge mess.

Drain the oil into a clean container and put it back in when you're done.

What you will lose it what is in the filter and what little will be in the adapter area. You will lose less then a quart of oil.

Some info there. No, you don't need to drain the pan.
