Huge brake line problem

I have to replace the line coming out of what I assume to be the power brake booster and running back to the rear wheels. The problem I am having is finding a replacement line. I've been to four different parts stores and no one seems to have anything close to the fitting to go into power booster.

Does anyone know the size of this fitting? Since I've removed the line already I am pretty much screwed as far as getting the car any where to fix it for me.

BTW its a 1996 RS 3.8 with rear disc.

If your close, I have two cars Im tearing down. Brakes were working in both. Id make ya a good deal on any of the lines you needed. Dont know about shipping though, as that would be a big awkward box and probably get damaged. One is a 95 V6, auto, drum rear, abs, no tranction control, other is a 98 V8, auto, disc rear, abs, w/traction control.

Please check with NAPA... they carry an abundance of an excellent new line of Metric Fitting Brake Lines that are also easily bendable with your bare fingers. Several years ago... I swapped out the old Drum Brakes in my Son's 1994 Camaro V6 RS with a set of LS1 Brakes all around and needed to modify or extend some of the brake lines to accomplish this job. It was NAPA to the Rescue! Make certain you know what the metric thread/pitch sizes of the fittings and connections on your specific vehicle are, so you don't buy the wrong sized "piping"...Good Luck!
