Power Steering High Pressure Hose leaking....

So my high pressure hose is leaking and thus I want to replace it. Looked and saw the part on MercedesShop (link) and it's $103!! Over at ********AZ (link) it's only $56. I'm worried about two things. At first the photo looked wrong to me, upon further looking, maybe it's just bad quality. Does that look like the right hose to everyone? Does it appear to be bent correctly? Also, quality is an issue. Does anyone have any experience with this hose from ********AZ? Thanks,
David

I'd get one from a pull a part or hollander exchange at that price. Its not PS failure is as drastic as say an oil cooler line.

if its the crimped hose then i would cut off the flared ends and go take them to your nearest napa or hose shop, theyl fix you up for about 50$.

I bought one last week for my 240D. I think it cost $75 wholesale cost. I believe its original MB part. I think that could be the difference, MB vs aftermarket. The new one has a coil near the gearbox. I was told it could be for cooling or stress/flex relief.
