There wasn't an o-ring on there when I removed it ~5 years ago to do the head gasket, but now I'm thinking of maybe adding one? Obviously this is a nothing leak. This is what it looks like after 5 years, but I've managed to get this engine down to essentially zero leakage and would like to send it all the way with this last one.

pull tube and put some rtv or right stuff just around the flare and reset the tube.
