Need help to ID parts

After picking up my new 99 Boxster and getting it home on a flatbed trailer with no problems. It bottomed out and took two lines with it. One broken line on the driver and passenger side. I'm guessing one is for the power steering but I'm at a loss for the other on the passenger side. Any help IDing the part so I can get them on order?

Thanks

the lines on the right side are the AC lines. The blue line is your clutch and the black is your power steering. If everything still works and isn't leaking, I'd leave it alone and attempt to secure them back to the bottom

Good, the power steering line has a small kink in it but I'd rather see if it works first cause that line rather expensive.

I took a picture of the passenger side of the other line that received damage. Again this is on the the passenger side in front of the rear wheel next to the jack point. I've circled the broken line.

Hope the tow company is paying for it.

If you want part numbers you can get the PET from Porsche web site, has all the part numbers you would need along with pretty pictures.

Not sure I'd take a chance with the steering being so vital. (vital <- Middle English, from Latin vitalis of life, from vita life; akin to Latin vivere to live)

Looks like the short side is broken. That will make it cheaper than any of the longer lines that go to the front. You shouldn't have a hard time finding someone to ship you the short lines. The longer ones should be found locally if you can

You're up in Dallas? I have a parts car with those lines. You take them off and you can have them

Thank you so much for the offer, it's nice to see a helpful car community online help a new person out. Bad news, I don't have the time to get out to your location and back any time soon. So don't worry, I'll have to hit up the dealer and see when they might have the parts.

You may rethink that when you find out what those lines are going to cost you new......

I think this is one of the PS lines. $334 just for that line alone.
