My power steering lines are leaking around the high pressure crimp fitting, apparently I pulled on it to hard on the last engine install

my question is what all do I need to go about plumbing in a new one with new lines.........what fitting and is there a specific hose I should look at? Seems like it would be a good time to put in a cooler as well. How would you go about routing the lines and keeping there?
Any hints tips or tricks you guys have learned from doing it would be appreciated, thanks

Here's a pic from the GM manual with notes I wrote for myself:

I have since changed my mind, and am planning to redo the whole kit and kaboodle.

If part # 30 from the above pic is missing, this is the perfect time to buy a GM p/s fitting from Capital Motorsports and plumb in a p/s cooler. I plumbed it in front of the radiator, but you might not have room there if the car still has all that stock junk from the factory.

If it is part number 33, the return line from the pump, I'd suggest getting someone to repair it or buying a replacement from GM.

I've almost got the parts list composed to replace the entire system, but there are a couple of items I still am not sure about.
