Whats this pipe?
 
Hi,
Ive almost completed my barn find restoration over the lock down period, however I have a broken pipe on what I assume is the aircon, but I dont know what its call to know what to look for as a replacment. Does anyone know the common name for this as search for "pipes" on car part sites returns a world of stuff

Looks like the high pressure line for the a/c compressor.

The rube that was working on the A/C couldn't break the connection fittings loose???? :rofl: "Break out the Sawz-all !!"

The chap I got this car from apparently only had a variety of hammers to work with, most everything that has been "fixed" was brute forced off, there's barely a plastic clip still in one piece anywhere on the car, its amazing the centre console doesn't just fall off :)
