I need help with AN fittings . . .what size is this?

I need to know what size fuel line I have. I guess fuel lines have a AN thread. It is about 3/8" so is that a 8 AN thread?? I would also like to know what size 1/2" would be in a AN thread. The bigger one is the high pressure fuel line and the smaller one is the return line. Thanks.

AN fittings are all based off 16 increments, just like inches are. So if you have 3/8" line, convert that to sixteenths=6/16, or #6. Or, if you have a #12 fitting, 12/16=3/4" hose. #8 is 8/16, or 1/2" hose.
