MEP 002a fuel strainer leaking

After changing fluids and filters, I checked the strainer and reassembled everything. It starts and runs but I have a small fuel leak at the nut on the strainer. I tightened it up a little at a time but don’t want to over tighten / brake it. Does the copper washer need to be replaced, did it just not seat right, can I put some silicon sealer on it or just insure its seated in the channel and tighten until it stops? It’s not dripping down the canister. It’s definitely coming from the washer / nut on the bottom.

Thanks
