Default I screwed up big time

So I guess I answered my own question of what happens if you get a hole in the condensor. I accidently cracked the line going from the firewall to the condesnor. The fill line I guess you could call it . It cracked right at teh flare where it goes into the condensor. What is this hose called so I can get a replacement? Also would a V6 or LT1 be the same?

See if they have any.

Liquid line out of the condeser to inlet of evapartor core.
Manifold/hi pressure hose assembly is the one from the compressor to the condensor.

Ok I think im calling the parts the names lol. Its the line directly beside the radiator cap that has a sensor and the fill cap in it. Goes from the (radiator looking thing lol) to the firewall. And so I'll be educated in a/c systems what is the part that looks like a radiator (evaporator??) and the "can" looking thing (the condensor?)? I'm sorry I'm an idiot. I've just honestly never messed with an a/c system. Thanks

The heat exchanger in front it the radiator is called the condenser and the silver cylindrical tank is called a receiver/dryer or accumulator
