That's not a bubble flare, a bubble flare is an inverse of a normal (inverted) flare, much like the british girling flare. It's a V shaped flare folded inward, not outward like a conventional inverted flare.
Anyway, a tubing bead like that is normally used for an o ring type seal, like on powersteering systems but again, there are no tube nuts present on the sections of tubing so it's got to be a different style, possibly push on.
I just had fuel lines made up they told me that was called a bubble flair. Now I'll have to look to see what I can find.
