You have a couple options
1-buy bulk of brake line and bend and flare the end to replace the whole line
2-Just clean and reflare the end and be done with it
3-buy one prebuilt formed lmc ,auto parts store,or the damn dealership and install it

Just make sure the rest of the brake line is rust free and doesn't break down the road
and what was the reason for the brake line breaking???
 
Brake line is cheap enough I would just buy a new one (I don't buy pre-bent though). If it was rusty enough to break there, it could be rusty enough to blow when you need brakes the most some time down the road. Your life > the price of a new piece of brake line.
 
dfixed the problem just got the broken part bought the fitting and reflared it
