Default Broke front driver side brake line, right out of the abs block

I broke my brake line, right where it comes out of the abs block. I went to the dealer to get a replacement and found it was a discontinued part. Anyone know where I could pick one up? Do any of the abs delete kits come with anything to replace that line? Should I just hard line it?

If the line you need is no longer needed with an abs delete then I'll sell you mine. I'm about to delete my abs. If someone could chime in and let us know.

how did you brake the line exactly, have any pictures of the actual damage? did you strip the threads on the ABS block?

I put a pin hold in the line, about 2" away from the block. I shorted the line to the positive source by the fuse box by being in too much of a hurry.

There's no way I'm the only one that ever damaged this line? What do people do, run standard brake line, and just adapt for the threads at the abs block?
