Have you tried heating the fitting with a torch?

Not yet since I can't break it loose from the split either.

Hit it with a wire brush, soak with PB blaster, let it sit for 30 min, wipe it clean and try again. If not, Vice grips, drill, and tap & die set may be your only option here

i'm assuming this is drum brake and the line is alloy. I'd use reg pliers and I know it'll get buggered up, but I doubt you have a choice. If it comes off, great -- you can likely get it back together with pliers and it doesn't take a lot of torque to cinch those.
But, if not... If you can replace the line at the coupling easy enough, just cut it and crimp the end shut so a minimal amount of fluid is lost. you're gonna need to bleed that thoroughly after you're finished, either way. you'll need a new slave unit, they are cheap enough.

Can I just splice the line and bypass having to **** with the coupling?

I don't know of any way to do this. The flair fitting is done by machine and it has to be precise.

There is a wrench just for brake line fittings so the edges won't strip. Ask auto parts store

I use these in plumbing, but I don't see why it wouldn't work here
