Default 2005 Steering Rack Flare Thread

I bought a used steering rack from a 2005 from Redline Autoparts. I can't get the high pressure hose to fit into the threaded hole on the rack. The flare is too large of a diameter. I'm using an NB hose, the NA flare also does not fit. I cut a fitting off of a different hose and tried to just screw it into the threads, and that will not go in either, it is too big.

Is there a unique 2005 steering rack? I just want to connect the power steering pump but nothing will fit. I can't find any unique power steering hoses to that year, so I have no idea what is going on with this rack

​​​​​Update: I think I might just be stupid. Seems like the pressure line does not attach to the rack at the same place for NAs and NBs
