Does one have a larger hole, or more threads? A taper? sealing surface? Something different from the other?

whats it off?

did you pull it out and not look? or is it a new one? if its a new one check your existing set up, high pressure will have crimped fittings, low pressure will have std hose clamps.

on my vehicle the rhs one nearer to the input shaft is the low pressure line, but your box is a bit different to mine so....

I know on my box the this was all identical, just that one line was solid the other was clamps etc.

The hole with the silver ring around it is slightly smaller. Thread is the same pitch.

It's a Suzuki Sierra box. My car didn't have PS.
I'm fitting this box with a Celica pump and lines. I have to rebend the lines and get the fittings at the box end changed.
