Default 2nd power steering pump...still leaking.

The leak seems to be right where the High Pressure Hose connects to the power steering pump. I put two orings at one point on the first new pump. This time I put the oring in another spot that the directions from Napa showed me or where it looks like they showed me. Getting frustrated. I don't feel like changing my alternator for the 3rd time because of this stupid leak. Can someone advise me of what is going on?

hows the line look? is the flair cracked? What about the fitting? If I remeber right the oring just goes on the tip of the line.

Yeah everything looks fine. I think my leak was somewhere else on the last pump and this time around it is a new spot. These were refurbished parts from Napa. Lifetime warranty...thank GOD.
