You're a good wrench. The thing I hated was struggling with the hose trying to get an accurate measurement. I might suggest something that made it much easier for me. Install a vice on a slider. Simply put the assembly in the vice with the fitting at the edge, your zero point. Crank it down, hook your tape, and walk it back. A vice also works great for setting orientations with your crimped angled fitting in the vice straight up and then clocking at the non-crimped end. I did this work for Pirtek in Minnesota USA for 20 years and after watching this, I really kind of miss it.

An easy repair in this case. On my Komatsu PC60-7, I blew a line under the house today and it's just about inaccessible. Lost all hydraulic power within seconds. Probably will need a mobile mechanic to fix it.
