Question: replacing the brake caliper on the pass rear side resulted in me breaking the hard brake line near the caliper - should this be replaced with another hard line? Or can I use an off the shelf flex line ie braided?

Probably pretty tough to find an exact fit flex line with bubble flare ends. Stick to the way the car was made. If you can't find the proper lines, ask around, maybe someone has a bubble flaring tool you can "borrow". It is really not that hard to do.
