looking for a union

looking for a union

hiya, i am looking for a flared union for a flexi pipe to clutch slave cylinder for vw transporter t25. the left end looks like a union that you put a fuel house onto, on a moped fuel petcock. i can't find a replacement of this. here is a picture:

it's up near the top, coming out of the right of the see through flexi pipe. on the left, are progressively larger soft v shaped fluted ends that serve to push into the flexi pipe and hold in place. the other side is a standard thread that screws into the clutch slave cylinder. do you have a union like this or know where i can get one? regards.

The website http://www.justkampers.comshows part number J10815 ( T25 1981 - 1992 model ) as a "complete " flexi hose with the unions fixed on each end.
Is this the model you have or have you got a different part number in any of your manual /reference / parts books ?

Putting a new union on a flexi hose is not a pratical proposition for an enthusiast, the pressure involved is high to get a good seal.A specialist hydraulics/ plant repair compay might do it for you.If it were an old pipe, they would probably say " not interested " and the cost of a new complete pipe might work out cheaper anyway.
