You can try to juice the line/nut connection with some penetrant (PB Blaster preferred of course) and then hold the line with some pliers or whatever you can find to hold it with, without breaking it, while you turn the nut. Usually they're not too bad to deal with, but the ones that haven't been off for a while can be a little difficult. Just give it a little time with penetrating oil on it.

You COULD take a tubing cutter and slice the line and then put in a piece of rubber tubing. It would work. That's how you put an inline filter in anyway.
