Seems this fitting would restrict flow.

It's beyond me why you didn't chose the simple solution that appears to have worked for everyone else of milling the recess deeper and using a thicker O-ring. And before you say you don't have a mill -- I used a 3/4" forstner wood bit in a hand drill.

This is someone else's install of a brass fitting into the front cover. More nicely done than mine but the same idea. I also ground the inside diameter for greater flow.
