Hydraulic line leak part number or info to fix it

I have what I think is a 1960 h40h it has a few leaks. One is a hard line going in to the bottom of the hydraulic tank. I traced the line to the steering valve. The line must be rotted and it is leaking. Is there a place to get a new one? Second leak seems to be coming out of the bell housing. How hard is it to seal that section back up? I'm new to forklifts and any info would be appreciated, or point me in the right direction.
