Anyone ever break coolant lines to turbo?

Ok i have a s14 sr20 still running stock turbo and lines. today i was pulling my tranny and noticed a coolant leak. it was coming from the line feeding the turbo it is a solid steel line, it has a hairline crack at the connection to the banjo fitting at the turbo side. Has this ever happened to anyone else should i have it braized or welded will it hold or is there a common leak, breaking point there? or should i just upgrade. need it done by tommorrow so i can be ready for desoto. appreciate your thoughts.
 
i would replace it.

my friend was lazy. he had a ca with a s15 turbin in it and didnt hook up his water lines and fucked the turbin up in about a week. he warped the whole turbo.
 
hey take the line to macko hose and rubber, the hose shop next to the junkyards off southeren blvd. if you need the number give me a call 561 900 4252 in west lake worth. and yes tmac's did brake thanks for fixing it st. lol jk
 
Yup mine did the same thing. I say upgrade to s.s. lines from taka and never worry about them again:bigthumbu.
 
Alright I Soldered The Crack On The Line Today. I Will Order New Lines Asap But Hope This Works For Desoto At Least Maybe Osw Next Weekend.
