Default aem fuel rail leak question

so i decided to toss on an aem fuel rail so i can mess with my fuel pressure. however, on the end of the rail they have a 1/8th plug *not the gauge or fpr port*

what is the best way to seal a leak from there? if i remember ur supposed to coat the threads in oil and tighten which is what i did, but it leaks as soon as u prime. they suggest not using teflon because gas breaks it down etc.

just curious what others have done thanks

Did you buy it used? Why should it be leaking? Is it torqued on tight enough? Try an O-ring maybe?
