As most people know, the high pressure connection on this type of pump is
female. For some reason, all the OEM type replacement hoses have a female
connector also. At Napa, they offer a universal hose also but it has a union
at the female connector. They didn't have it in stock so I couldn't see what
the union looked like nor could the counter guy find a connector that would
work. I have no idea what the nomenclature is for the union in order for me
to try to find one. Does anyone know any way to find out what this
union/connector would be called or know any way to find one? I even checked
with a Chevy dealer but they were no help. Thanks in advance if you can
help.
I can email pics and text to describe these items if needed...

You have the wrong hose. Try somewhere else. It shouldn't be hard to get
the right one.

It's the right hose and I found the adaptor today from Edelmann... 3/8"
