One of my break pipes has corroded in two places, would it be better to change the whole pipe or just the two corroded areas?

Probably easiest to make a whole pipe as you'll only have to flare 2 unions not 4 and it can all be done off the car.

Depends on the line and the place of the corrosion, but normally I'd do the whole line at least you'll be safer then trusting a line that's corroded once
