71 Clutch Master query

I have to use a life-line. I'd like to ask the audience.

  My 67 Sprite (with 1275 and rubber hose to the slave cylinder) uses a 
1/4" steel pipe up from the rubber hose almost to the master cylinder. 
However, just prior to the master there is a union reducing the pipe to the 
more typical (for brakes) 3/16" line which then enters the master through 
an adapter. (This may be a Frankodification) (Claricization)

A lister (and you know who you are) with a 71 is asking for the complete 
steel pipe.

Question. Am I correct that the ENTIRE pipe is meant to be 1/4" diameter 
with BOTH ends having a 7/16"-20 male nut? And, does the pipe have the same 
flare on the master end as it does on the rubber hose end (which I know is 
a double or standard flare)?  Oh, the catalogs say the pipe is 55". ... 
true? (LHD)

The OE catalogs obfuscate this information, and Moss ignores it.

Thanks    Peter C
