Hyd. hose won't seal to slave, followup

Original post Dec. 29. New slave, newish hyd. line (installed by local indy). Bad leak at fitting. drips under gravity presure from reservoir.
I concluded that the problem was a cracked flare on the line though I never could see a crack. Ordered a new hose (due tomorrow).
I rehooked the old slave and ....no leak. rehook the new slave, leaks like crazy. This would suggest the problem is with the new slave (genuine Saab, eeuroparts). I notice that, with the new slave, the fitting goes into the receiving farther than with the old slave. It's almost as if the recieving flare on the slave was milled too far (deep) into the slave body. So I ordered another slave and intend to return the first one as defective. Thing is, Eeuroparts doesn't allow you to "select" the genuine Saab slave right now so I had to order a Scantech one.
