I've used stainless brake and fuel lines on several cars without issue. As mentioned, take your time un-bending and put a light coating of lithium grease between the flare and the nut. Once I started doing this, I haven't had any leaks. I'm on the east coast so even though my cars do not see bad weather, the humidity causes the hte zinc plating to oxidize.
