I have a Red Sea 425xl

the overflowtube is leaking bad pic below I have it off now but it is still dripping with it empty think their may be a hole someplace.
Anyway it’s between the pipe and where it goes through the nut cracked so that is off but no matter how tight the nut was the pipe was leaving from the pipe and the part that goes through the tank.

I pulled the pipe cleaned it off tightened it down again still leaking any idea what I can do to stop this?
