There is an o-ring that seals the fitting to the pump, and another o-ring or compression fitting, depending on model year, on the high pressure hose. If it is the o-ring(s) leaking, just replace the o-rings. If it's the compression fitting, you may need to replace the high pressure hose. What year truck are you working on?

I've dealt with this before - the high pressure line goes into a fitting that then goes into the pump. The line into it's fitting never gets tight, it has a way of sealing it's self. Problem is, it is prone to leaking. Get you a new line at Autozone or somewhere, around $25 and 30 minutes to replace once you figure out how to get it lose on the gearbox.
