You put a copper washer on both sides of the fitting right...
Block - washer - line - washer - banjo bolt.

if his answer is yes, then he might be looking at a helicoil install.
Which can be done, from my experience I have seen it work just fine. Its just difficult to get it straight with the engine in the car. I didnt do it, I watched a pro do it one time.
