Look here.
I am looking for the current version. Those are all at least 2 years old.

Could this be the reason for jumping through hoops :-
Java SE 7 and Java SE 6 updates
Updates for Java SE 7 released after April 2015, and updates for Java SE 6 released after April 2013 are only available to Oracle Customers through My Oracle Support (requires support login). -

We need Java 7, but the update 80 (which we have) has a couple vulnerabilities that are fixed in update 101.

I have used things like FileHippo in the past to get previous versions of java but there site seems to be working oddly now.

The latest version of Java 8 is here https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
If you want Java 7 you will have to pay for support.

Not the MSI I was looking for but hopefully I can extract one out of this exe.

I was afraid of that. I am not sure why something is free then all the sudden you have to pay for updates. I understand Java 6 so it is pretty old, but many apps still use Java 7.

You don't, you have to pay for them to provide access to and support for downgrades, not upgrades. The upgrade remains free. Java is on 8 now. Using any version of Java 7 is not an upgrade. It's still free, just not something that Oracle provides access to because it is not in their interest to encourage or enable applications to not stay maintained. If you have software that needs that, the vendor should be providing Java support for you.
