The oring joint mate, have a look at the oring and make sure that the oring A. Hasn't been damaged and is the correct profile. Over tightening can stress orings as well. Good luck.

There is no tightening it’s just a push in oring joint ???

most people i see drill and tap a thread to the fuel rail or if its like the v6 use a inlet fitting held in by one screw like i did when i fitted a turbo works fpr and orb fittings
