If you are leaking at the base I doubt that loose studs are the issue since there was crush on the base O-ring and low pressure drop across that gasket. Sounds like the gaskets have been compromised. I am not familiar with the paste you applied to the O-rings but suspect that to be suspect since it sounds as though you have had multiple seal failures. Most literature I have seen suggests installing those O-rings dry or with Curill.
