Default Snapped the metal fuel line.. what now?

Was trying to bend the fuel line to fit a Universal AEM fuel filter for my 92 Cx, and I guess I got a little too greedy and it snapped apart. What can I do to fix this?
Can I just squeeze each end into a piece of rubber fuel line and clamp the hell out of it? or is that a bad idea?

that would work. You could have it sottered back together, or get a new line. Id go for the hose and clamp method.

you can try that method but i dont think it will hold the pressure,your going to have and flare the ends some how to get it to hold,you can flare the ends by hammering a screwdriver in the end to flare it.
