If you're absolutely sure the leak is at the flare, try a flare gasket.

My 340 GTS has the 90 degree fitting. I believe that the '67 273 cars that we have owned all had the 90 degree as well. It's about keeping the hose away from the heat and the straight fitting won't do that.

I got that exact part # copper gasket and its too big.....by a good bit. Do they make them smaller than 1/4?

To answer my own question Yes they make 3/16 and some of these arrived today and look like they will fit.

The 3/16 flare gasket was the right size but it did not stop my drip, removed line and cut off and reflared and that stopped the drip, but now from messing w it, it was leaking from the 90 fitting. Removed it and replaced the rubber o ring where it screws into the pump and this fixed the last leak.

I did not see the above question till after it was back together again. Sorry.
