1980 300D transmission dip stick tube leak

I have had several of these early 300D automatic transmission that have had leaks from the dip stick tube. I replaced the washers and it seems to be leaking even worse. I think the surface on tube is not perfectly true. My guess is that it dents in from over torqueing. Is there a solution to this problem other than replacing the tube?
