I have remote oil filter lines which originate from the block. I am experiencing an annoying leak from one of the lines that connects to the block. The leak is coming from the metal nut to elbow. Assuming the elbow is flared inside the nut?

How does oil sneak past? Is there an internal O ring in/on the flare that has gone bad? The nut won’t seem to tighten as it looks like a point is butt up against the bottom hose, nut.

Hope my crude pics describe it better. Oil 2.jpgOil.jpg
