Power Steering Return Hose Connector

This is from my 1984 Trans AM power steering box.
I need to purchase the connector or the sealing ring. I believe it is the "ring" that is causing the leak.
I have o-rings but they seem thinner than the "ring" that is on connector.
Worst case I can try an o-ring or apply a little sealant about the current "ring".
Suggestions?

It’s just a o-ring on a saginaw flare. I wouldn’t use sealant

Go buy one of those assortments that has about a pound of all the various sizes in it. No doubt there'll be one that fits. It'll cost the same as ONE that you'd look up as "Saginaw power steering O-ring", and you'll still have about .995 pounds left for other things.

I'm pretty sure Harbor Freight sells one of those assortment O-ring kits. One of them should work.
