Dave,

Go it.  See here:
https://mgaguru.com/mgtech/brakes/bt132.htm


Item 7 - Length=13" -Bridge across front brakes (2 req'd)

3/8-24-UNF-M, 3/8-24-UNF-M



Also from the Service Parts List:

ACH5305  15.M.3  Bridge pipe for front wheel cylinder

(13") -(2 drum brakes)


You may be able to buy the individual pipe assemblies from a local auto parts store (most likely at NAPA). Expect them to be available in 6-inch increments of length, like 6", 12", 18", etc. If you need a 13" length, then buy a 18" length, cut it shorter, reinstaall the end fitting and re-flare the pipe. The parts store will have a flaring tool, may have a tool lending program, might even help you to cut and re-flare the pipe right in the store. Depending on quality of the flaring tool, you might expect to spoil a couple of parts before you get it right.

Now you have me keyed up to add the BMC part numbers to the page

linked above.

After that, I can post new Part Numbers tech pages for the individial

part numbers.
