Default turbo oil line leak

ok, so I've narrowed my turbo oil leak, to the feed line.

its leaking around the top of the nut/line where it attached to the turbo.
is there a seal or something I can try? or do I need a new line?

My understanding is there's a copper crush washer for them, I can't be 100% on that but that's the way I've read it. You could try giving the nut a little tighten in case it's just not quite tight enough and you can get these oil pipes on ebay second hand if needed.
