[Healeys] Brake line material

There are essentially three types of material for brake lines; steel, stainless steel and a copper nickle alloy called Cunifer.

>From what I have found working with Cunifer is easier than working stainless steel.

Has anyone worked with both materials?

If so, is stainless a lot harder than working with Cunifer?

My goal is not concourse; just a very nice restoration that at first glance would appear original. Stainless steel would look closer to original than Cunifer; that is why I am asking.

Thank you,
John Spaur
