Im looking for the front hard brake line that runs form drivers side to the passanger side. For some reason when I was on the way to the dezert the hard brake line got a hole in it some how. So I had to take it cut it a the hole and crimp the end so I would have some brakes. Could I have a custom soft stainless steel hoses made for it? If so where?

What usually is done, is to buy a standard length of the correct diameter of straight bundy tubing, with the correct threads on its flare nuts - which would be SAE, not metric for your vehicle. Then bend it to fit, using the old one as a template. If the broken line is longer than a standard length, you buy two lengths, and a coupling to join them. If you didnt want to do the work yourself, any place that works on delivery trucks would be able to replace that brake line.
Im not sure it is legal to use anything but the bundy tubing for brakes on cars used on highways
