Help identify this banjo nipple thingy....

Was just installing some new lines and when I pulled the old one off I found that my banjo has a nipple and the new line doesn't fit 



Does anyone know what this type of banjo is called or what is the proper fitting for it?

Thanks

Well, to me, it looks like a Earl's fitting for making custom lines. I've used Earl's products when I made my own stainless lines. You would buy bulk stainless brake line and cut it to the correct length. You then used their fittings and presto, custom length brake lines.

I don't think it's a Earl's fitting but it looks real close. I don't remember theirs being anodized like that. Also the nut is different.
