I've noticed weeping gas coming from the circled area of my fuel line to pump:

The brass nut is as tight as it's going to get. I wonder if the olive is distorted, or if it has distorted the inlet of the fuel pump. I know I have a TR6 olive, (not sure yet if they're the same), I'll try that when I get a chance. Any other suggestions?
 
Thanks, Randall, very interesting.... wonder how many TR6 olives I've got squirreled away...
 
Nice I thought that I would just live with the puddle on top of the pump!
 
It was my understanding that the long-olives were no longer available, but I bought the rear section of fuel line from Moss (the one that comes out of the fuel tank) and I was surprised do find it had a long-shaped olives at both ends. I think the tubing came from the UK.
