The problem is the hose that runs up through the tall faucet is leaking. I don't know who manufactured the faucet. So unless all the faucets of this type use the same hose, I need to identify it so I can get the correct hose. Please help!

It will be easy if you get an answer here. If not, take the photo to your local plumbing supply house and ask. If it was installed by a local plumber chances are he bought it local.
You can probably browse web sites looking for it too, u it may be the firs one you see or on the 5783 one.
The logo is usually on the back of the faucet near the base on the back toward the wall. It looks a lot like the Lowes in house brand.
Try Moen Harlan < ? > google image search.
Harlon not Harlan .. John T.
If it is really Moen and not the Lowes knock off Moen will usually send you a hose for free. Email them that picture and see if they believe it is theirs. .
sure looks close
At my last house, I installed a Moen kitchen faucet and matching soap dispenser. Nearly three years later, way after the warranty period, the soap dispenser broke. I called Moen to order a new soap dispenser and the guy insisted on sending it out at no charge, no need to see any purchase receipt or anything at all. Great folks to work with.
Same situation with both American Standard and Pfister. Buying off brand stuff doesn't make any sense unless you are flipping houses.
Before posting I checked the Moen website, and found no match. All of their similar kitchen faucets have the handle pointing up. They pull down to turn on the water. This one has the handle sticking out horizontally, and you raise it to turn on the water.
I also checked Sears (the people I bought the house from were big on Sears) and Lowe's. I even did a reverse-image search on my picture.
Thanks for the tip on Moen, however. I will send the pic as suggested. Perhaps it is an older model.

Two choices:
Take the hose to a local plumbing supply and see what they say. Buy a new faucet, it;s probably a cheap Chinese knock off and not particularly attractive. In my experience, when the name isn't shown, it's usually cheap.
If you say that the Moen Harlon is different than the photo that you posted - so be it .... they sure look identical to me !
They certainly are at least very close. One immediate difference is the Moen has "Moen" on it, visible at the bottom of the base. Which goes with what I just said in another post. When there is no name visible, in my experience it's typically low cost off brand China product.
If they copied the detail closely then the hose may be the same too. Aside from the name they sure look the same.
Mine says "Communist Red China" at the bottom.
Moen replied today. Identified and correct part number for the hose. Thanks again.
Would you believe their similar faucets are now selling for $400-$700!

No surprise. Moen, Delta and Phister Phaucets are NOT INEXPENSIVE. And not, at least genrrally, cheap either. The offbrand stuff is usually more cheap than inexpensive.
Yes, you have to know the difference. Cheap is often very expensive.
Thanks to someone's suggestion here (thanks again), I sent the picture to Moen. This is their reply:
"The faucet that you have is the 7599SL Moen Medora faucet. The hose number that you will need is the 131381.
Many Moen parts can be purchased online through the following link:"
No free hose, but I got the needed info.
If you compare the handle on the Medora to the handle on yours and the handle on the Harlon - - yours looks like a Harlon to me. . not that it will make a difference in your repair needs. John T.
