Default Need some help figuring out an issue

I have a 96 integra LS with ABS and I decided to put in some stainless steel brake lines over this pandemic. However, I have run into some issues. 1. My pedal has barely any pressure (pushes all the way to the floor) 2. The brakes were working somewhat fine before this install so I don't think it's a damaged part 3. I see fluid seeping out of the hard-line to soft line joint where you pull the pin out. 4. The bleeder valve on RR is stuck and stripped so I will have to replace the caliper. 5. I have bled the brake lines except for the one with the stuck bleeder valve and I think this is why my pedal is soft because there is air in this one line.

What has me confused is why there is fluid seeping out of those areas after I push the pedal to the very bottom (it may be that it's over pressuring the already bleed lines and that it's causing it to find a way out? Idk it's very frustrating but I can always put in the old soft lines because to me they are snug tight. Any help is appreciated, thanks. I've bled brakes before but on a Gs400 where it automatically bleeds it for you and isn't too complicated.

Yeah, focus on that caliper before starting to bleed again.

Thanks man. Do you think one line with air in it will throw the whole system into feeling like it has air in it?
