I replaced this very same brake pipe a few weeks ago. I purchased the pipe from TRF, and it came with all correct fittings. I had to bend it to fit, but with a lot a patience (and reference to the old pipe) I was able to successfully do it. I would advise purchasing a pliers-type brake pipe bender from Eastwood (or perhaps you can get it elsewhere) and I also used a pipe bender that enabled 180 degree smooth bends (purchased from McMaster-Carr) to be made.
