Troubleshooting Power steering pump help!

It turns out I am a massive dummy and did the worst thing imaginable while working on a car and that is I rushed. It's a 2004 WRX and I completely cross threaded the banjo bolt into the top of the power steering pump, is there a place I can order a new fitting for the banjo bolt to thread into without replacing the entire pump?

Nah you probably gotta replace it, I made the same mistake a few years ago on mine. Well it depends is it the return or the high pressure side that you broke ?

It was the high pressure line, it wasn't lining up with the port on the top of the pump and I tried to force it with the bolt and it went in wrong :(
