This has been ongoing for a while my dad had at it and hacked off some things unfortunately, the master cylinder going to the rear, is an inward cone as though one looked into a funnel. This means inverted, which means double flare? I don't think this is a bubble, trying to order the correct flaring tool. I have the 9/16" fitting from the rock auto set, the line is 1/4" I know that much, thanks?
 
I thought it would be a double flare, most of the standard kits for flaring brake tubing should work
 
Thx for the idea. Didn't think anyone would respond south with all this smoke in the air.... not everyone voted for it
 
Alright so it looks like I will be machining a conversion fitting out of a 9/16" fine thread bolt that reverses the flare. Apparently a brass fitting may be available as for the front, but it's hard to tell what these web sites are selling, and they are all out of stock. It's just at 45 deg angle to be machined for the flare anyways, should have just done it to begin with.
