That will work IF the steel line is properly flared and/or adapted to AN or SAE and the hose installed using the correct threaded fittings. Hose clamps on braided hose is a mess looking for a place to happen.

I'm OK with overkill if it means I don't have to worry about it failing.

If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.
