I have a special Vice Grip that works great for such problems. It has a hex recess instead of the normal jaws. Works great for brake line nuts. If the thread is frozen the flare nut will sheer and you will have to reflare or replace the line. I just did that while replacing the front brake rubber hoses. Talk about a tight place to work.
Good luck.
