I had the same problem on my Disco 1 , it was in the garage for 2 days while they stripped bits off to remove the pipe and refit a new one.
This is a pressure fitting a jubilee clip will not hold the pressure. Don't make old people mad. We don't like being old in the first place, so it doesn't take much to  us off.

Thanks for that, looks like it’s the low pressure side so think I may be alright to cut off the p clip and resecure.

Quick update, all sorted, jubilee clip did the trick, leak was on the return circuit not the high pressure hose. Done a search but not really conclusive what PS fluid to use, think it has ATF in originally however will normal PS fluid do.
