It's 37 lb-ft (50 N·m) for both front and rear. Don't reuse copper gaskets.

Its 35 Nm (26 lb. ft.) for the front brake caliper and 50 Nm (37 lb. ft.) for the rear brake calliper.

Hmm, I'm not sure where you got that but the 2004 Classic was basically a 2003 Malibu with L61 Ecotec for the fleet operators. The banjo bolt torque that I posted is for the front caliper and rear wheel cylinder both (front disc, rear drum setup).
