The straight and bango connectors are interchangeable, and use the same fittings at lever and caliper ends, so you should be able to swap and change at will. (This is true of my XC4s and C2s, anyway).
Note that the OD of the hose used has been reduced from 6mm to 5mm in recent years. The 6mm hose can be hard to get, so you may want to change the whole setup to 5mm. If you do, you'll need to also change the fittings at the other ends - expensive! When I moved mine between bikes recently, I got around this by using Goodridge 6mm hose - expensive per metre, but cheaper than a full set of connectors.
AFAIK this was a design problem with some earlier Hope models
Which lever? I've not come across that problem in a decade of MTBing...
My elderly (C. 1999) Hope brakes use the
Pro Lever which uses a banjo connector. This cannot turn relative to the lever body, because it sits between two locating lugs.
The
Sport Lever doesn't have that support, but would normally be fitted with a straight-through connector, anyway, as shown in the drawing.
The more modern
Mini Lever is similar to the Sport in that respect. I have seen people run these with banjo connectors, though, for tidy hose routing.
