Question Leaking Brake Fluid!

I just put in new stainless steel brake lines, but now my lines are leaking. Not the ss lines, but the metal line that connects to the ss line. Ive tightened it as must as I could but it continues to leak. Its not leaking from where they are threaded together, but just behind that on the metal tube (under neither the piece that you thread into the ss line). I dunno what to do to stop this leaking. Ive tryed high temp, oil resistant caulking and JB weld but both with no luck.
Can anyone help me stop this leak? Or do I have to go out and get a whole new brake line? oo and its leaking on both the back brakes.
Thanks guys!

New lines. Fortunately, the rear lines are much easier to get off a junkyard car than the fronts are.
