Re: [VAL] copper?!
Chris,
Yes, it is 5/8 inch. Standard 1/2 copper tubing is 5/8 od, and 1/2 id.
It should not be hard to find. It may be that when it froze, it
expanded a bit. This will make it very hard to work on. An easy way ,
if there is a small split it to take a short piece of copper pipe and
saw it in half length wise, put a rubber gasket in the half tube and
clamp it to the split pipe with 2 hose clamps. This will last for years.
