This is what I ended up doing. Went to the local hydraulic shop & bought
1x meter of push-lok hose [400 psi].
8x 2 ear zp 17/20 crimps.
Removed the oils from the blazer &took pic of lines before I cut the old aluminium crimps of making sure I didn't cut the aluminium pipe.
Removed one pipe at a time, cut new pipe to length &put 4x 2 ear crimps on before connecting back to the aluminium lines. Made up a crimping tool out of a pair of vice-grips [vice-grips you can set a tension on them].
Crimped the first line on before removing the next line & then repeated process leaving one end of the hose uncrimped at the radiator end till I got the lines back into truck.
I had to find some seals for the aluminium blocks, went to local chev shop [Kiwiblazers neck of the woods] & they didn't know what they where as they sold it as a kit, had a look at what they had out the back & walked out with 4x sump plug seals [these where the same as what I took out].
Put new seals on & torque blocks up & crimped last line in place.
Home made crimping tool.

Lines 2x months later.

oil sump plug seals [old ones I took out]
