I recently replaced the brake hoses on my '41 with no problems. Are you sure the leak is coming from the junction of the T-block and the hose? If so, and you're sure the parts are good and clean and the hose is screwed down tight, then you may need either a new T-block, washer, or hose. I'd be leary of using a washer made from something else for fear the brake fluid would eat it away over time.
