Radiator question

Hi TDR.
Quick question on what fitting type this is.

I recently replaced my trans cooler with the Mishimoto cooler. The instructions have you cut the rubber section of the line and insert a hose coupler with hose clamps. Well, after I incorrectly installed the hose clamp on one of the sides (I inadvertently clamped onto the collar of the coupler instead of the barb, and subsequently blew off the return line) I want to replace that whole rubber section with fitted connections.

I already have the 8AN fittings for the cooler side, but I'm wondering what the connection type is on the side where the rubber hose connects to the hardline. Pic attached of the fitting in question. The rubber side of the hose. Basically wanting to have a 8AN-??? braided line made up.. but don't know what the other end is.

Thanks.
 
FWIIW,
I made all new lines with hydraulic hose. Here is my parts list and info. I did delete my exchanger in this process so adapt accordingly.

**This is apart list for trans line with the Mishimoto cooler. if you have the stock cooler you will need to splice at the rubber points or cut the metal hose and add compression fittings**
-8AN ORB to -8AN Flare male X 2 (Mishimoto connections)
-8AN Straight Hose Fitting x 3 (cooler connection and trans outlet connection)
-8AN 45 angle male to female x3 (I used these to change the angle at the cooler and the output line from the trans)
-8ANx1/4" NPT adapter fitting x 2 (Into transmission case)
-8AN 90 Degree Fitting x 1(Transmission inlet)
-8AN caps x 2 (for the exchanger inlet and outlet)
And for clarification I went with JIC 1/2 push lock fittings. I believe they are less in the tolerance but was assured they are fine for this application.
65 inches of hose for the trans to the cooler (Having the Mishimoto adds about 12 inches of length)
80 inches of hose from the cooler to the trans.
I bought 15ft of 300 psi 1/2 inch hydraulic hose and have a few feet left over.
remove the inner fender on the drivers side will help you a ton.
 
Excellent! Thanks Mhennessy.
