PVC dishwasher tailpiece attached directly to metal kitchen basket?

[enochian]

1. Is it correct to have a PVC dishwasher tailpiece attached directly to metal kitchen basket?

2. How do I stop this joint from leaking?

Yes its a normal to connect . probebly missing a washer plastic with metal not a problem , might have a defect on the plastic tail piece
