yes, Datsun 1200 brake lines are 3/16". Do not use copper, it requires double-flared high-pressure steel line. Cunifer steel or poly-coated steel for corrosion resistance

What we usually do in my country is buy a pre-flared line (say 48" long) and bend it to suit. Alternatively you can buy stock tubing, cut to length and then use a double-flaring tool to add the fittings (3/8" fitting on one end and M10 fitting on the other end)

Stainless steel is not used. Datsun uses either cunifer (a special copper-nickel alloy) or poly-coated steel

In other words, standard brake line material

Have you asked at your local auto parts store? They are the same brake lines as used by Ford, Honda, etc.

I have never heard of stainless steel (inox) being used

Nissan used Cunifer lines
