Default Power Steering Issues

I have been putting this boat together all summer. Its been a pain in my ass getting the right parts. I need to know how these hoses are routed and the size of the fittings. I have a friend that works at a place that makes hoses aircraft-oilrig stuff, said to bring me fitting sizes and lengths and he'd make it happen.
In the pictures I have the steering cable and rod next to my oil/power steering cooler. Then my dirty ass pump..
Any help would be awesome.

Boat is a 1996 Velocity/Thoroughbred
