Moises Alou currently has a 17-game hit streak going. Using baseball-reference's Play Index streak tool, I found that in the major leagues over the last 50 years there has been only one hit streak longer than that by a player over 40 years old.
Longest hit streaks, last 50 years, player over age 40:
Pete Rose (June 1982) 21 games
Moises Alou (August/September 2007) 17 games (and counting)
Pete Rose (May-August 1981) 17 games
Paul Molitor (August/September 1998) 17 games
Dave Winfield (April/May 1992) 17 games
