A photo would help. Never seen gaskets at a filter drier on a Mopar, just metal-metal flares on old ones or O-ring fittings on newer, but not at expert. Normally the metal tubes can be re-used, with new rubber hose installed. You might have to cut off the metal crimps w/ hacksaw & cutoff wheel, as I have done on several cars.

Added a pic of dryer it leaks on both sides
 
Those block style hose ends are a son-of-a-gun to get sealed when they leak. As far as I know you can't buy new ones. I couldn't find any & was told they warp over time :BangHead:

Ended up drilling & clamping mine like this...Not pretty, but it works!!

Could also fix the problem for good by just fetching a "Tube-O" (O-ring seal) filter-dryer and having new lines made up locally.
