I recently purchased this SRAM Rival hydraulic brake calliper and I want to install it. However, I’m a bit confused about which barb and olive to use. I’m new to hydraulic systems, and the variety of options out there is overwhelming. Can anyone help guide me on the specific type that would work for the SRAM Rival calliper (pictured)? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

There’s just one barb and olive for all of their modern brakes, the stealth-a-majig.

There is only one barb and olive called stealth a ma jig (I butchered that name) that is used in their compression seals. However, they have a system that uses a banjo bolt (instead of olive and barb) on one end and a barb/olive on the other. This appears to be the banjo bolt system.
