is the end of the brake pipe nice and smooth? get some sandpaper on it to clean it up. Be careful that you do it as flat as possible though (don't want it "bowed" or anything...)

the bolt screws down into the end of the brake pipe. the washers either side seal it. the surfaces that the washer seals to need to be nice, clean and flat. if its coming out the top, then maybe you have some contamination under the bolt head or on the t-piece
