Default broke the fuel line that comes from tank

So I was dropping my fuel tank and in the prosses the feed line to the engine broke. I was wondering what would be the best way to repair this? Either go to honda and get the new line and whatever else I need or to do a ss braided line. If I do the latter what size AN do I choose? I'm guessing -6.

Thanks in advance, the car is a 92 civic btw.

did the hose snap in half? or it broke from the fitting from the tank

if it broke in half you can get some fuel line from autozone and fasten it to there = fixed

i was thinking of flaring the line that runs straight under the car, -5 size i believe. then buy a banjo adapter to -6 an and run a ss braided -6an line. but idk what size banjo to get for the tank. i still have the bolt. a link to summit racing or anything else would be nice.
