Leaking Power Steering Fitting

I've search allover and can't find an answer.

I replaced a power steering pump this weekend, and it turns out I had a hole in the lower pressure return line (rusted through).

Bought a new line and put it on as well, but there's fluid leaking up through the hole in the nut/connector where the steel flared tube goes through it. I can't get it to stop.

I've take it on/off several times and it's tight...I'm at a loss here. I can't afford to take it to a shop for something stupid I'm missing. Is there supposed to be an o ring or something between the hose and the connector? There wasn't anything in the bag.

Thanks in advance guys.
 
If it's leaking between the tube and the nut, you got a bad line. There's an o-ring in there. May have been damaged when the line was assembled.
