Leak at nozzle

I replaced my old hot end with a new one and it worked fine for a while but now I get filament coming out where the nozzle screws in to the block. Not a lot, but enogh every few print to leave a blob and sometimes get a print error.  Any suggestions as to possible cause/fix appreciated.

Did you observe the procedures described on this page?: https://help.prusa3d.com/article/changing-or-replacing-the-nozzle-mk2-5-s-mk3-s-mk3-5-s_2069
Especially the point about hot tightening the nozzle and the correct torque?
