Where is everyone sourcing the brake line material (anyone know the size off hand), just local auto parts store? SAE or Metric Flaring tool?
As long as fluid level was kept up, it should be a simple brake bleeding procedure of passenger's rear (furthest away from master cylinder) then driver's rear.

As far as pipe goes, any auto parts store should have sections of line usually with ends already fitted.
If you car reuse the connection near the front end that would bee most ideal as one of the lines coming from the ABS pump is a bigger size and gets reduced asst that union. All the other lines are size M10.
If that's possible then you would just need to make a connection somewhere along the long straight section. Metric fittings use a bubble flare, so be sure to get a tool that does those and not double flares (SAE).
