I'd call locally to older established AC repair facilities and ask about "aluminum brazing" - being an R12 system I believe TIG isn't an option. There's very likely differing opinions but ....

I wouldn't remove the line until I found a shop that says they can repair and I'd be inclined to let them do the removal for the repair. It's entirely likely that they might want to splice a section.
