Brake line nut , wrench advice 200 1991

It looks like the 245SE will need a new rear brake caliper. The outer piston is stuck. I could try to break it loose but replacing the caliper is faster, if I can remove the brake line nut. Research on the BB seems to center on using a Snap-ON flare wrench, It's 11mm right?
Someone mentioned a torch on the not, but I must remember to empty the fluid out first. Last time I did that the line exploded,,,DUH, I boiled the fluid!
Looking for confirmation before I order from Snap On, $34 ! for the wrench !!
