hard injection line leak

on my 1992 300d 2.5, the hard injection line from the injection pump to the injector broke just above the nut at the injector on cylinder 5. So I order one directly from Mercedes dealer for $68. Two other dealers in the area had it for $112. So I got a deal right? I put the line on as I was actually able to just snake it around everything. After tightening everything down, fuel was leaking around the top of the nut again at the pump. Its a compression fitting so I'm thinking I screwed that up. Another $68 for the part from the dealer and I put the second one on. I tighten it lightly and start the engine. ITS LEAKING. I tighten more and more and still can't stop the leak.

What's going on here? I asked if there was a O-ring, but the parts guy says no.

Anyone have any ideas?
