need picture of caliper if you have one
My left rear caliper is leaking on my 88 iroc. It looks like the leak is coming from the little block that the brake line runs into. I replaced the crush washers, but it is still leaking. One thing I noticed is that it appears the caliper has a little groove machined into it for the block to settle into, but my block sits the wrong way. Is it supposed to only go on one way? I don't see how I could have twisted the line to do this, but I guess it's possible. Anybody have any other ideas or a picture of how the line is supposed to go on. I am going to check the other side tommorow, ran out of daylight today. Thanks for any help.

its supposed to sit in the groove, that groove keeps the block from spinning when you tighten the banjo bolt

Thank you for the response. I flipped it around and it seems to be working now, I don't know how I managed to flip it 180 degrees like that, but I guess I must have.
