Fuel lines and compression fittings

[welderman85]

Hello all I'm at my wits end with trying to fix my fuel line. It's the line that runs from the filter to the spring disconnects. I have a new set of replacement disconnects with a barb fitting and I cut the factory steel line to flare but it's to strong. I broke my flare tool trying. Can I use a compression fitting there ? Are they safe?

I though about replacing the whole set up with new nylon line but it runs close to the exhaust. I have checked every junkyard near me for the lines but no luck
