996 Clutch line replacement

I am looking for a clutch line replacement OEM 996-423-377-12 (see attached picture #14) for a 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 and there is no stock worldwide (checked through porsche dealership and pelican parts).
I am looking for an alternative solution.

Thanks MkC2S I appreciate the help, I will try it although is been confirmed by pelican that if porsche doesn't have stock on an item, than the item is unavailable to order.

Thanks JohnCA58 I am located in Ontario, Canada. I will research all hydraulic shops in the area.
Will they be able to fabricate something that will replace the hard pipe and hose?

Autoatlanta doesn't have it in Stock.
I really want to keep the car as close as possible to the original and I ordered a GT2 clutch hose. Does anybody know if this will fit or if it needs any modifications.

Why don't you just take yours off and bring it to a shop that makes hydraulic hoses?

So, It's basically the same part ? Different part #? Glad you got it sorted!

the part fits perfect as i was told by the mechanic although is not the same. the original part is made out of two parts joined together (metal pipe and rubber hose) the GT2 line is just a hose.

There was a company on eBay that offered stainless steel ones. I put on my car. No difference noticed but, I liked the idea.
