[TR] fuel pump question

I was surprised when my attempt to pull the rubber fuel 
line from the fuel pump on my Spit actually pulled out the 
(brass?) fitting instead.  I tapped it back in with a 
block of wood, and it seemed to be tight, but when I 
tested it with the engine running it pulled out on its 
own.  Not good!  The pump itself is fine, so I'd like to 
make a fix if possible.  Is there some product that will 
let me secure the line in its slot, or does this have to 
be a pressure fitting?

Thanks,
Tim
