i am changing the brakes, along with the rotor and caliper, when i hooked up the brake line to the new caliper it leakes brake fuid pretty bad, so i tighted the bolt and stipped the threads on the caliper so i got a new one, putting on the new one i saw that the brass washer had some grooves from what looks like it goes between the caliper and the end of the brake line, am i correct or does it go between the head of the bolt and the end of the brake line, i don't want to strip out another one, and it is still leaking but not as bad with the brass asher inbetween the caliper and the square pieve at the end of the brake line
