Take a look at my posting with the YouTube, there is a guy that shows you how to make them with a flange tool...

Also, before I wrote the pointy part of the cone goes towards the pump, pretty sure I said that backwards - the pointy part goes into the steel line - like the fellow shows when making a copper washer to in copper flange seal. Just trying to visualize how the steel line, copper flange washer, and fuel pump/carb connection all go together. Likely once I start doing it, it will make sense!
