1993 Defender brake pipe - what tools and parts are require

I am going to change my front brake calipers on my 1993 defender with 200tdi axles, and I require advice on the tools and parts I need, so could you help with the following please;

Firstly, what size brake pipe spanner do I need?

Second, what size brake pipe do I need and what length. How many fittings will I need. Does anyone have a link to a reasonably priced decent set.

Third, any advice on a flaring tool for the pipe. If they are a reasonable price I may buy one, otherwise I may try to borrow one as how often should I need it?

And finally, flexible brake hoses. The original ones don't seem too expensive but I have also seen the braided ones. What would you recommend? Are the braided ones better and worth the extra cash. If the braided, a link to reasonably priced ones would be helpful.

As always, your help and advice is appreciated.

Mick

PS - I am looking to change the brake lines as I suspect they may well brake when removing them as they are quite crusty!!
