280 k planes help

I bought some years ago that are in great shape with the pumps (kiekhaefer) Getting near installation of and wondered what size nuts/fasteners that thread over the 2 Stainless threaded oil line fittings.I haven't ever installed bedore and purchased new used and just have the pumps and k planes. Also what size are these hoses? Thread size etc. When ordering from Napa.
Tks
John

I believe the hoses are 1/4 flare. Most have adapters down to 3/16. Not sure on the nut size, too bad you didn't post this earlier I pulled a set this morning.
