All I had to do was have one end of the hoses re-terminated with a JIC fitting. Pretty much everything else on the tractor is 1/4 pipe.
Came with the red tape on the fittings that needed to be tightened on installation. Pretty fool-proof. Upper connection to the valve block is an adjustable compression fitting to allow for minor differences in plumbing spacing.
I need to replace the upper hoses for the top link with shorter hoses. It was initially plumbed with what I had laying around. They're long enough that they catch on the top link attachment at the implement and get yanked out.

The connections at the check valve block had 1/2 NPT to 1/4 JIC adapters screwed into them.
I was asking about the banjos. By all appearances the block is SAE ORB or possibly BSPP

Oh. I'm not sure of the proper terminology, but banjo bolts that screwed into the 1/4 NTP on the cylinder with copper crush washers on both sides of the banjo.
Those banjo bolts and cylinder ports are not NPT. That simply does not exist.
My guess is everything is BSPP which is standard just about evetywhere outside the US. The adapters are BSPP x JIC to accomodate US hose fittinfs. All standard off the shelf components.
