A crows foot 3/8 or 1/4 drive wrench and a small impact tool can send enough shock waves through the fasteners to break the nut free from the line after judicious application of penetrant. If not, I usually use the smallest torch tip I have and heat just the nut to expand it a smidgen to get them to separate. Same story on wheel cylinders but sometimes can't get the crows foot wrench on those. Don't forget to use a wrench on the block and put your turning force against that instead of relying on only the block mounting.
