I think it is a Julie ( entry level)
If you replace the hose, do you need to go through the whole "olive" thing of Hopes? Or can you just cut the barbed end connectors out of the hold hose and fit them to the new hose ?

And it says mineral oil , not DOT xx. Can I buy this from Halfords?

I've tended to use a new olive but the barbed thing I've reused.

If you're careful you don't need to bleed afterwards.

Obviously if you are replacing the hose you will need to bleed.
