Smile New Guy with just acquired 57 Olds

Yea, got me a jam up 57 4 dr Super 88. Love this thing. They really built cars back then. Heck, the dual exhust actually runs thru and around the frame.
A little tech question here. The fuel line routes up at an angle and goes into the carb thru what looks like a 3 way nut attachment. I do have a leak there and believe somthing just needs to be tightened but am not sure what to loosen or tighten first. Afterall I just cant run down to Discount Auto Parts if I break or strip one of the nuts. There is obviously a flared fuel line with a tightening nut and then there is some odd looking nut that apparently screws onto the carb. Probably a fuel line screen there somewhere. And it doesn't spell it out in the 57 shop manual. Appreciate any help. -J'ville
