I have a turbo oil feed line leak at the nut. The leak is located at the brass block oil pressure sensor connection on the passengers side engine block. Any tips on fixing this leak? It’s difficult to put a wrench or flare nut wrench on it but I’ve managed to do it. I’ve tightened it a little bit, but it still leaks. Any tips on how to move forward is appreciated. Thanks.

If you can get it off you should check both the block brass fitting and the feed line for debris or a tiny crack.
Other than that loosen it and rotate it slightly which might clear the debris or allow the flare to re-seat better.
 
Do you know if the fitting that attaches to the brass block is factory? The one end that the feed line connects to as seen on the picture?
