How to install front brake hose correctly???

[Blakcharger440]

Hey,
I am doing a front disc conversion on my 70 Charger.
On the front disc brake hose banjo bolt that screws into the caliper, does it need to line up exactly with the hole inside of the banjo end of the brake hose fitting??
If so how do you do that??? Do you make a mark on top of the bolt to make sure it is indexed properly???

And another question...do both sides of the banjo fitting get a copper washer?
how tight should the banjo bolt be? And should I be using any type of thread sealer???
