Normally there are flex sections in both lines.
You can repair using transmission specific hose rated for that fluid and pressure.
Cut the line with tubing cutters.
Clear the inside out from the cut then put a small amount of flare on the ends using a flaring tool. The small amount of flare is to insure the hose does not blow off after the hose relaxes with time and heat. Re check the clamps from time to time to see if there is any seepage.
Slip the hose on and clamp using two clamps on each end.
