Replaced the water pump and I'm getting a leak from the hardline on top of the water pump. I'm wondering if it's because it's not seated completely flush to the water pump (although, for the life of me, I couldn't get it to while installing it) or if the O-ring inside got messed up somehow.

Do I have to completely reinstall this? Or any other tips on fixing this issue? Thanks in advance!
