Great post David.
The key point that you made, and one I learned the hard way. Couple the new line to the old line with hydraulic couplers and use the old line to pull the new line into place.
The second point you made, and I gleaned this one from HWH, splices on older hydraulic lines don't work. It's tempting to splice or put a new fitting on the existing line. HWH is adamant that it's a temporary fix at best.
