you need to replace these two washers and make sure that no particles of dirt or anything gets on them or the line when you install the new ones.

these are crush washers and usually do fine if you reuse them, but when they start to leak like with your's, it's time for new ones. you'll likely have to get them from honda to be sure they fit right, but if you have a good auto supply store nearby they may have aluminum crush washers that will fit for a lower price.
