No pipe dope or Teflon tape on flair fittings.
OP: My guess it has been bent at the flange(flair) area and not allowing the flair to seal on both sides.
Next there is an O-ring on the 90 degree bend end. see your link for hose. It maybe damaged. You did get the old one out, right?
Not sure what you mean here - from what I can tell there is only 1 o-ring for this hose and it is used at the connection to the pump. I'm not leaking there so I'm pretty sure I got that o-ring replaced properly.
My leak is a seeping of fluid from the threads where the hose connects to the steering box. I don't see how anything could be bent or could have gotten bent.
