Mike,
I need to correct my earlier post...
Here is a pic of a fitting I removed from my Newell when I installed the water softener. I don't believe there was a grommet in it. The brass is tapered and seats into a female taper in the other fitting. It may just need to be cleaned real well and lubricated with plumbers grease or petroleum jelly for reassembly.
