looking for part number 172838 which is the hydraulic hose for the old style "external" PTT pump. dealer wants $300 for it, cannot be made up locally either, ebay doesn't have one nor does craigslist.

any hydraulic shop should be able to make a line.

I now see ebay was tried.

Next thing would be to buy a used motor with the parts that would work, get what you need and part out the rest or keep it for your motor for spare parts

I've found a bunch of stuff on ebay recently.

A new old stock drive shaft bearing housing which is normally $186 for $26 shipped. A new impeller housing (new old stock) that is normally like $80, for $13 shipped.

Never mind, just saw that you tried ebay.

Have you tried the NAPA store that is downtown? They have made hoses before don't know if they still do

A decent hydraulic repair ship will keep the fittings and replace the hose, which is what goes bad. Very, very rare for a fitting to go bad.
