Some A/C shops make custom hoses, you could take yours to one of them and have them fixt it.

is it leaking from the crimped area? you can remove the crimp and use a clamp temporary, its a hose barb on the end, but i would have it crimped as soon as possible.

If it's leakin from around the tube where the fitting is you have a bad oring, pull it out and see majority of the time they get stuck inside the rack and get pinched when you reinstall the line
