Here is one of the sources that I use here in the US.

http://www.mj-engineering.com

If you create a user profile it will allow you to order directly from them.

I am also fortunate to have a local dive shop that carries them.

ah I see, so the internal bore on the 9/16 side should be sealing up against the o-ring in the regulator hose end fitting?

Where did you get the fennel in the first example hose (QC4 with 1/4" hose fitting)?

I see that Swagelok has some that might do the same job:

That might not be the right size (don`t know what the outer diameter of my hose is)

Yup... It works just like the Inspiration O2 fitting to the solenoid on the head.

OK... blonde moment on my side... They are called "Ferrules" not "Fennels"

http://www.fittingsandadapters.com/hoseferrules1.html

Some suppliers also have hose repair kits that come with a set of vice grip like pliers to crimp the ferrule with and assorted sizes.

(Please note that I am not an expert on this stuff. This is simply what I have used. Use at your own risk.)
