Urgent Help needed about P/S Hose

My 67 has the later type power steering (not the ram type) and I blew a hole in the pressure hose last week. I have a correct replacement pump and brackets to swap out for the bodged on later shape pump and home-made brackets (350 SBC)

My problem is that the new hose I have has a male fitting on one end and a female fitting on the other. My pump and steering box both appear to take a male fitting. Is this possible and I've just got the wrong hose or in the bodging process has the previous owner done something odd and missed a piece out somewhere. Is it possible that this is an even later setup with the metric type hoses? Is there any way to tell without taking the pump/hoses off and completely immobilising the truck.

I don't know if the box is original to the truck as I don't have the option sheet. The frame does have the indent so I guess it is possible. The truck originally had a 6 in it not a V8.

Help!!!
