Rare version of a PAS hose/hardline. Has anyone else ever seen one?

The high pressure (HP) hose that runs from the pump, up and over (going left) the rear of the engine then down past the PAS pressure switch, through a bracket and turns right along the rear of the steering gear/rack, then forward for a few inches and then turns left and goes into the steering rack. UK current edition (which is different to the factory fit version) is 1465855 (also known as 7S61-3A719-BA). This is one long run whereas my HP line is split into 3 parts. The section that is on the right is a short hard line as per attached photo. It is the RHD, with air-conditioning version.
I need just this part and not the whole pipe which can be £330 (GBP)/$445 (USD) from Ford UK. I have spent a few weeks, one and off, trying to hunt one down that is new old stock. The beaded, rolled and reduced end goes into the PAS pump adapter/union nut. Mine has cutting disk marks from trying to get an old nut off the hard line (if you ever need to do this leave the nut in the attached pump and use a ratchet strap around the steel hardline turn, and a tree to pull it out!)
