Brake line fitting - Replacable?

My SS brake line fitting broke off inside the caliper. Its a shot in the dark but if I remove the 1 brake line and bring it to a shop, could they replace the fitting that screws into the caliper, thus saving the brake line? I'm just wondering if this can be done.

This is where the brake line screws into the caliper, see how it broke off inside the caliper.


Anyone know what size flare wrench I'm suppose to use to get this line off?





My car had 2 piston calipers (big brakes), powerslot rotors, and SS brakelines when I bought the car from Aaron aka "big brown". A seized caliper messed up my rotor on one side. I replaced my calipers (got both sides for cheap, $65 shipped total), rotors, and pads already. I don't want to drop like $100+ for a new set of SS brake lines. Its a shot in the dark, but its worth a try.
