Re: leaking a shit load of oil Did you put new crush washers in when you checked it?
Those washers are not re-usable, once they have been tightened down once they shouldn't be trusted anymore.

Re: leaking a shit load of oil well these lines are braised ( i believe i spelled that right) together and they can crack or get pin hole leaks. I had 3 of them crack on my car when i finally just decided i was going with a braided line. Or the most likely is the crush washers. Like stated above they are not reusable.
