Broken Cooling line for ATF 200 1989

One of the cooling lines for ATF wore thru and leaked fluid all over. I believe it is not uncommon.

At any rate, I'm going to fix it with a brass compression fitting that's sold at the local auto parts store for $2.50 (usd) and see how it goes. I've heard that some people patch it with rubber brake-line, but its right there by the exhaust and I can't imagine that it would survive more than a couple years.

It looks kinda clunky, but its cheap. Does anyone know if I should expect this compression-fitting-fix to last?

Thanks,

Flint.
