I don't recollect which end of the line has the goobered up threads. Before you go acquiring stuff, be sure where you need them. Is it the brass fittings on the line, or the threads in the sediment bowl or the elbow into the carb that are screwed? (Sorry, couldn't resist it!)
There shouldn't be anything terribly exotic about the line. Steel is the proper material, as copper gets brittle and fails (read "starts fires in bad places" when it ultimately leaks).
You could try, I suppose, asking about steel line for any purpose (not just brake line) just to break your counter guy out of his box, and see if he can find it that way. And the fittings shouldn't be that exotic, either. Nothing non-standard about he thread or the taper at the end.
A good auto parts store and a good counterman are both blessings if you have them.
I'd suggest trying other places. You say you';re going to town. Try some of the older parts stores, and don't be shy about stopping into a diesel shop, either.
That failing, you may need to bite the bullet and buy a new one. I see an ebay connection posted below. If that doeesn't pan out, OEM has the line you need. Comes with fittings.

This is the place! Bought
