I assume you're is similar to 60s GM boxes.
Your options:
The high pressure fitting on the back of the power steering pump can be unscrewed and swapped. You can use your original hoses then.
Or you can use the metric hose, cut the end off that goes to the box, put on an inverted flair fitting and double flair it.
Or theres a company (Lee?) that makes an insert to allow you to mix fittings.
Or you can get metric/inverted flair to JIC adapters (Speedway motors) and make your own hose.
