One picture looks like they are using Swagelok fittings. https://www.swagelok.com/ The other is a straight flare fitting. If you have a Parker Store in your area they will have both types.

Like PGSigns said, if you have any hydraulic supply place near you I'd take a ride up there and they should be able to hook you up.

Like the others have said, top is push to connect fittings, middle is swagelok fittings and bottom is AN 37degree flare fittings.

I'm using AN fittings and the cheapest place I've found was www.anplumbing.com all are good fittings it just depends on the look you're after and budget.

I was going to put braided line and AN fittings on my bike oil lines a few years back and quickly was like NOPE, it's not that nice a bike ha!

Parker is my go-to, since its the only place you can usually handle the product before buying, order ANYTHING, and bring in old hoses/parts for them to match/replace/mockup.

If you have an oilfield buddy he might be able to hook you up with some Swagelok stuff for cheap too. I have tons of it on my truck I just get it from work. Cant beat the price
