Take out your brake line, and take it down to the parts store and get a universial line of the closest length. It is better to get one too long that too short, you can always take a less direct route or put a loop in it somewhere. Brake lines are cheap anyway....the last universial 40" long line i bought was about $5

Sounds like a good time to invest in a tubing cutter, bender and flaring tool to me.
 These tools you will use again and again.
