You are correct. Sorry<G>!
But, "how" you do it is of serious $ situation 'cause if you break the line =
$$$$$
So, wire brush the tube nut until squeaky clean!! "foam" on some "Busty",
Kroil. PBBLaster or other penatrent. Let soak at least over nite making more
applications.
Then be sure you have a flare nut wrench to fit (like this

apply it to the nut and give it a rap to TIGHTEN ever so slightly!! Re-foam,
wait, gently try just a little UN-DO. Re-foam, tighten, re-foam and most
likely it will now just un-do.
After it is out very carefully un-coil the three loops, punch the grommet into
the interior side of firewall and feed out.
Re-assembly is the reversal of the above (no foaming required tho<G>).
To put the "loops" back in the line I just use very big socket.
