IMO, get another line, your friend might have cracked it as well at the bending point.

I think that line is just to let the fluid cool down. It touched my alternator and it started leaking(that fluid will kill an alternator). I replaced the section with a hose clamped to it.

Could I cut that line out and replace it with a PS fluid cooler?
