Leaking Freon out back of A/C Compresser

I replaced my engine this winter and I went to recharge the A/C but the freon just leaks out behind the A/C pump where the hosed attach. Is there a O-ring or something back there I should have replaced?.

I am going to tear into her this weekend but wanted to know if I need to run to the dealer**** and get an o-ring.

Thanks

Yeah there are 2 seals that go on the lines on the back of the compressor...you can get them from Advance Auto.

Hopefully they will give you the correct ones. They aren't rubber O rings but a metal 'crush' O ring/gasket.
