brake line leak

[bhermes]

I am trying to get my 76 280Z 2+2 back on the road and currently have a brake line leak.  It is about half way back on the passenger side.  

I am not real knowledgeable on repairing brake lines but was hoping to be able to just cut a section out and add some fittings and a short piece of brake line.

Can someone that knows more than me recommend a repair procedure?  What is the brake line size? etc.

 

Thanks.

I would replace the whole line, it feels better than a patch job on an old line. Did the line rust out? Where will it leak next?
