Try a can of WD-40, PB Blaster or Liquid Wrench (the best choice) and a 10mm brakeline wrench.  A brakeline wrench is like an open-ended wrench except the open-ended gap is only large enough to slip the brakeline through.

In case I am wrong about the fitting size, try a metric wrench until you find the proper fitting size, then get the same-sized brakeline wrench.
 
All the above are available at most auto parts stores.

Regular open-ended wrenches can flex open and booger up the fitting.  Using an SAE (english) wrench will also booger the fitting because they fit too loosely.

Soak the fitting and after a few minutes, crank on the fitting with the wrench.

Good luck!
