Default Power steering leak need part # for teflon ring

Hey Guys Im doing a head cam swap on My V and in the process I swiveled the power steering pump out of the way and it started leaking. I tried tightening with no success so I took the line off the pump and it looks like the Teflon ring on the line had denigrated. I believe I can just replace this teflon ring and be leak free? I really don't want to replace the entire line due to a bad ring. Anybody have a part # for this or suggestions?

I didn't even use it on my new pump and I've swiveled it around many times swapping alternators a couple times since. no leaks. mechanics have told me they're not necessary. I hope it fixes your leak though.

Ok So I just bought a whole new fitting. How do I get the old one off? Looks like a copper or brass c clip holds it on the inside.
