Size of O-ring on 2000 Maxima power steering pressure sensor

Does any know the dimensions (inside and outside diameters) of the O-ring which fits on the power steering pressure sensor (Nissan part No. 49745-01E00)? I purchased a replacement hose and the o-ring ruptured on installation. I would like to side-step the ridiculous price charged by Nissan for a replacement, especially since I have to drive to the dealer to get it. I suspect if is readily available at a local hardware. Please advise.

4/4/25 Update: I was finally able to remove the power steering pressure sensor and determine the size of the O-ring: OD = 14mm, ID = 10mm, Width - 2mm, which can be purchased at your local Ace Hardware for $.98. Also, like several others on this site, I had difficulty removing the original sensor and was only able to do so after applying heat- which must be done carefully to avoid damage to the diaphragm within the sensor.
