Heater Hose Supply Line Hack?

Just curious.....
My 1998 Boxster has a burst heater hose supply line.
I ordered a new one and I'm not sure how difficult it will be to to install.
As I was under the car (part not here yet) I wondered if I could cut the original and "splice" in a brass coupling, with clamps of course. Thoughts and suggestions welcome!

I know that you're right! Maybe I'm putting too much "budget" thinking into my budget project......
