Default Speed bleeder concave to concave fitting going to seal???

Purchased a speed bleeder from a sponsor here.

Trying to figure out if this is going to seal properly or not.
The factory bleeder has a convex nipple protruding from it that goes
into the slave into a concave female style snug fit to seal it perfectly.

The speed bleeder I bought has a concave fitting and the slave has a concave hole to thread into.
Is this going to seal properly ?? There's going to be roughly a 3/8" gap between the fittings now inside the slave.
There is a copper crush washer but I would have thought it would be convex to concave to seal properly.

The new bleeder line fitting isn't going to stick all the way in as fluid has to go into the line, it will seal where the threads end. Trust us, we've sold may of them
