Steering hose/ 740 700 1990

I had a steering hose spring a leak a couple weeks ago and am now getting around to fixing it. I have removed both hoses from the rack at the banjo fittings, as I'm not sure which one's leaking. My thought was to replace both since neither looks particularly good.

Local parts dealer has the high pressure hose from the banjo fitting to the pump, but the other hose from the banjo firring to the reservoir nobody seems to have. I have not tried contacting the dealership yet, as that is my last resort. The part doesn't look like anything special, just a banjo fitting, with pipe, swaged onto a hose. Am I missing something? Do these parts never go bad and that's why nobody stocks it?

Any thoughts or ideas on where I could get a replacement? I suppose I could just try and replace the 2 copper crush washers and see what happens, I just didn't want to do the job twice.

Thanks for any response.

Kurt
