Brakes are a high pressure hydraulic system that no glue can fix. Replace the line or at least as much of it that looks rusted. If you are new at this, take it to a shop so proper fitting are used to avoid a sudden loss in fluid. NEVER use a compression fitting on ANY brake component.

Brakes is one area that you do not want to improvise. Lives depend on it!
