I don't think there is, and you really can't get a wrench on it anyway. Just put some Teflon sealent on it and call it good.

Yeah, tight enough that it doesn't leak and won't come loose on ya. That should do it.

Yes. use sealant. There is no torque values that I know of for tapered fittings like that.

I may be wrong on this one but I believe there was some type of sealant on mine when I bought it new from GM. May not need the teflon tape. Just for info.
