The pressure line at the rack is sealed by an O-ring at the end of the line itself:
Did that O-ring get replaced during repairs? Is it in good condition? If in doubt, I'd suggest replacing the O-ring and rechecking for leaks. The O-ring part number is 49745-01E00.
The threads of that line fitting aren't designed to seal anything, so adding tape or sealant won't help.
