Thats the same on the TR6 pump.  On the inside of the pump the lines bottom
out on the inside of the housing so the compression sleeve will collapse
when the fitting nut is screwed down.
On the reproduction, they made the inside of the housing the same 5/16  on
both sides so that the 1/4 pipe passes through it and the compression
sleeve can't be compressed by the nut.
