@
Side here you go!
Also, credit where credit is due. I previously had read a very useful post from @
toast for how to fix this problem:

So, consider my posting a "video version" of what @
toast said. Hope this helps you and others.
Some supplemental info that I did not talk about
:
1. My leak wasn't really a stream, just felt wetness under the bolt and could smell gas.
2. I was worried about fine metal shavings getting in the fuel line, so in general I kept the sandpaper underneath the bolt as I sanded so the shavings wouldn't get inside the bolt. But afterwards I doused it with brake cleaner and let it dry well before reinstalling, just to flush away any loose pieces. Probably overkill, but can't hurt.
Usual disclaimer applies, I am not a professional so take my advice with a grain of salt.
