Remote Bleeder

So I just got finished putting the rear cradle in after a clutch swap, then notice some fluid dripping from the bellhousing area. First thoughts was s***. I notice it is coming from the remote bleeder. The second connection that sticks though the bellhousing is loose and was really tight before installing. Is there a way to tighten it beyond hand tightening it while still in the car. I have no interest in taking out the drive train again. I kept tightening it with the my hand and moving the line over while holding screw part. This stopped the leaking and make it pretty tight, but I am looking for piece of mind.

Thanks for any input!
