Sorry for the delayed response... As often happens, one unplanned trip for work led to another and another after that.
Anyway, I pulled the E-clip and still couldn't release the fitting so I spun the hex fitting out and now it's obvious. The fitting seals with an o-ring in the bore of the hex section and with the E-clip removed you can slide the tube forward to expose the o-ring. New o-rings and the leaks are gone.
Thanks everyone for their input - one thing I learned along the way is these seem to be commonly used on New Holland equipment. I know I've seen these fittings used for fuel lines on industrial equipment over the years but I don't recall the brand.
