You did not change the washers did you ? Get new crush washers and you will be set to go.

Because all the fuel pressure is going in the engine compartment and not to the engine. Both sides need washers.

But did you replace these washers at all or remove the bolt because the washers need to be replaced with brand new ones. Fix the leak and go from there, don't start looking at other things until you get the 1 problem fixed.

Have you unhooked ( pulled them out while there still connected ) and turned the car over to see if they were spitting fuel, or do you think there not working because the car is not starting ?

The car is not gonna start when all the fuel is coming out of the fuel rail rather then going inside the engine.

I had the same problem with mine. Just keep cranking the car over, it will start. Hopefully before you run down the battery. Just keep crankin'. It could have an air bubblu in the fuel rail like mine did. Fresh air just doesn't burn like that gas does. lol Just keep cranking. I know it's frustrating, having all that time, money, and blood put into your car and it won't start. So just go ahead and KEEP CRANKING it, it will start. (If all of your wiring is correct and you have a correct ecu, preferably PM6) Did I mention that you need to keep cranking it!!!!!!!!!
