I suggest using a substitute that calls a function using \= (see :help
sub-replace).
For example:
function! ReFormat(stuff)
let l = split(a:stuff, '|')
let x = l[0]
let y = l[1]
let z = l[2]
return 'def foo(x="' . x . '"' . "\n"
\ . ' y="' . y . '"' . "\n"
\ . ' z="' . z . '")'
endfunction
:%s/\w\+|\w\+|\w\+/\=ReFormat(submatch(0))
If the pattern that finds the lines to process is different to that which
identifies the text within the line, use :global, say
:g/whatever/s/\w\+|\w\+|\w\+/\=ReFormat(submatch(0))
Using a function that processes a range is hard IMO.
