If you break the connection loose with vice grips you can definitely get the connection tight enough with vice grips when re-assembling. You can dress up the Hex with a file or small hand held grinder. I would never splice a brake line.....I would have to look but I am thinking the steel brake line can be replaced as there are many ZR1 chassis around and the steel brake lines are not in high demand.
