Default Leaky Oil feed line

OK, noticed that my oil feed line to the REAR MOUNT is leaking right around the back of the fitting on the braided line. Is this fixable? Im not sure how these lines work exactly. And I cant seem to find one long enough for sale....other than Nitrous lines. Would they work? which route should I go?

I had a -4 nitrous feed line on my rear mount. I have the fitting for it that goes onto the turbo for it too.

OK, good deal. Will order one today. Is the original worth fixing as a backup though. I would like to keep an extra just incase.

Pull the line off and go down to one of the hydraulic and rubber shops and have them just fix the fitting. Other wise they can just make you a new line. I had my rear mount oil feed line wear through against one of the crossmembers and I had to get a new one. I just took the line in to the hydraulic shop and they made me a new one a little longer so I could re-route the lines. I think I ended up paying about 58 bucks for the new line.
