Also, I need an opinion on one part.. on the top piece (because there's a middle plate) instead of putting o-ring grooves, I just put little o-rings on the inside of the bottom of the barbs, and tightened down as much as possible. Leak or no leak?
Yeah it should still work fine if you already ordered to tooling. Being the pressure in the system isn't going to be over 10PSI it should be fine as long as the o-ring sticks up above the plane before tightening down.

You need an o-ring on the outside of the barb holes on the middle piece on the top side. Or just one groove around them all? If your going to mill an groove in the base it will be the same groove on the top plate. All you have to do is take the base out and put the middle piece in and do it over. But however you want to do it.
