This hose has a pinhole leak, I looked online to have a replacement made but can't figure out what these fittings are called. Any help describing them would be appreciated.

Flareless compression, SAE J514 I believe

That looks right when I do a Google image search, but I don't see that as a choice on the hydraulic hoses online website. It looks like this JIC 37deg style fitting. Would that be the same thing? This is a British made machine, but I've bought hoses at the local hydraulic shop in the past and they didn't have any problem matching the fittings. The place went out of business though so I'm trying to buy online.

JIC 37 degree fitting can be found that use an o-ring, I have also see a few straight pipe fittings that seal in a camfer of the pipe using an o-ring.

I think that is an O Ring Face Seal fitting. You could go to a JIC hose and adapt the ends with jic to orfs.

No it is not an O-ring face seal fitting. Face seal fittings have a flat face with a groove for the o-ring to sit in and seal two flat faces together.

Youre right. I missed that in the pics, 1st pic. I wonder what the thread size is.

I was surprised to see an oring, didn't know orings were used to seal high pressure like that. Do I need the oring? I'd think a regular JIC would seal since the angle is right.

I found this fitting guide from discount hydraulic hose, very helpful. It shows what I have is JIC 37deg which is the same as SAE J514. I have a thread gauge so I'm able to confirm what I have. I found a thread where they talk about these fittings with the oring, I guess it fell out of favor for whatever reason. So I think I'll just order the hose with JIC fittings and assume it will work.

The o-ring was supposed to allow the JIC flare to handle higher pressures.
