Original lines were steel; buy a proper length & sized brake line at NAPA or auto parts supplier, then gently bend it to the correct shape.
I wrap the line around an approximate 2" diameter object to get the round shape needed up by the sediment bowl. Steel kinks easily so go slowly with the bending & hold the line against a rounded surface when shaping. Holding in your hand will easily kink the line. (Experience talking!!)
Copper will work; however,it does work harden & can break sooner than a steel line would.
Use tubing style wrenches to tighten so you save the hex shape on the tubing nuts.
