Hi! When installing a left rear quarter panel floor pan insert on my 1973 VW Beetle, I barely grazed/scratched the center brake line with a drill when drilling a hole. Not with the drill bit, but with the round part that holds the bit. It was not leaking. A neighbor/handy man/fix it man said to put J.B. Weld Epoxy glue on it. He said he had fixed high pressure air conditioning hoses with epoxy glue and it worked. I cleaned the surface of the brake line and applied the epoxy glue and let it dry. I have been driving it. It works fine and does not leak. I thought I would go ahead and replace that line when it warms up. What you recommend? Thanks In Advance! Joe 73 VW Beetle
