No parts store can match the brake line nuts without seeing them off and I can't take them off and get to the store. I could use the old nuts but I hate doing repairs without replacing the hardware. Also I believe the old nuts work with a bubble flare. Will a new nut with an inverse double flare seal into the mounting block and pump if I used a pre-flared line?

double flare to double flare.

you must remove them to match up. they make so many that you need to match up the line size and thread pitch.
