A bit of a long shot here. But has anyone made their own air conditioning hose assemblies?

Have some machinery here that looks like one hose may have the tiniest leak at the crimped on end (the system does leak down over 12 months) and may need to be replaced.

I found getting hoses made up at a shop is like hydraulic hoses. Obscenely expensive and I see there are options for DIY, just like hydraulic hoses.

I would be putting hychill in it as a replacement if I replace the hose.

Of course I would not consider just getting a can of air duster and putting that in the system as an interim measure, as that would be illegal to put the R134A in the can of air duster that is designed to be sprayed into the atmosphere into a closed air con system with a very slow leak.
