Between those and the bracket and other parts that look like they came from the Titanic wreckage I would rather drop the whole back end out and refurbish everything.
It makes sence to replace everything.
I pull the rear wheels, exhaust midpipe and drop the rear subframe to get room to work.
After I replace the lines and secure them I coat EVERYTHING with spray truck bed liner.

Note; The rear subframe drops only as far as the struts will allow.
Good luck with the project.
