Need a new line for the slave clutch cylinder

I purchased a new slave clutch cylinder and screwed up while installing it, cross-threading the line connection. No way I can clean that up.

Is there any place I can get a replacement for this piece? I've attached a pic. I don't know anything about flaring brake lines so would need something either plug and play or a workaround from the auto parts store, if possible. Any help gratefully taken...thanks!

Buy the correct size line both in length and in the nuts at most auto parts stores

Then bend it to fit as needed being careful not to kink it.

Maybe time you learn how to flare things ??

Thank you, I went to the parts store and the helpful clerk found a pre-flared line with the correct fittings, at the size I needed. After some careful bending I got it installed.

Regarding on learning how to flare, I think you're right! (The clerk also showed me a tool they rent for doing it.)
