don't think I'd recommend copper, or copper alloy. They tend to fatigue and 
break with vibration. I still prefer the hard nylon. Incidentally it is 
possible to use AN fittings and flared joints with nylon. Just warm it a 
little, (don't melt it)
The other alternative would be stainless braided teflon, as supplied for 
motor bikes and race cars. That's probably the best.
