The flare must be lined up correctly, tightening down a misaligned connection won't necessarily seal the connection.

I would not encourage you to try and modify the flare. If you alter it it likely won't seal on the existing filter or a replacement filter. I guess the way that I would put it would be to only do this only if you have the time to replace the fuel line if you mess it up.
