I think it's a -3 AN. -4 would be bigger than the typical clutch line.

AN is Army Navy sizing, each dash is equal to 1/16" they are 33 degree flares.

If I understand correctly the dia of the hole should be 4/16 if it is a -4 3/16 if it is a -3. My guess is it is a mcleod due to the color and that you only have 1 (-4) the Russel is natural steel color and comes 2 to a pack (-3)

No, the dash numbers represent outside dimensions.
