Leaky RB SS braided oil cooler hose...

I've got the RB SS braided oil cooler hoses on my car, since the stock ones were leaking. They've been installed for more than 2 years now. Now the upper hose on the cooler has sprouted a tiny leak. It's not bad now, just an ooze, but it's going to get worse, especially with the higher oil pressure reg in my new motor. The guys at the shop called RB to find out the part number for the fitting, and RB wouldn't tell them! I guess RB doesn't want people making their own hoses instead of buying theirs. Anyway... anybody know the part number? It's an AN hose barb on one side, with a 90 degree bend, and a metric pipe thread that screws directly into the cooler. Not sure of the AN size or the metric pipe size. Any help would be appreciated.

that is a good question... i never really thought about that... but you could get some of those somewhat large AN fittings and some thick steel braded hose and make those for less than RB sells them...
