Replaced mine last year and used normal oil hose with no bends and no 90 deg 
bend
on the pump.

route of hose work ok without any kinks or tight bends.

they have a metal 90 deg adapter to which regular hose could be fitted. I 
contacted
them and they said just to use 'an AN fitting size -8'. Looking at the
manual though the thread seems to be 14.4mm so I'm not sure what they meant now.
I wonder if they meant to make a 90 deg elbow using AN fittings. I couldn't
figure the parts I would need though.
