1991 front hydraulic Distributor leak

I just replaced all 12 rebuilt hydraulic cylinders only to still find a slight leak coming from the center overhead light unit. I removed the top hydraulic cover and verified that all of the hydraulic lines were connected tightly and properly to the hydraulic cylinders. I stuffed some paper towels under various points and it appears that there is a slight leak coming from the center distributor (A 129 800 00 22). I took out the lines and cleaned them as well as the connection port on the distributor. Still leaks a bit. Just enough to keep a nagging drip from the overhead light unit. Any suggestions? I know I can't buy new clips for the lines and there does not appear to be any damage to the distributor itself or the hydraulic lines. Is there a product that I can/should apply to the lines before reconnecting them to the distributor that might tighten the connection?
