How to replace CLUTCH LINE ?

Hey all,
Tonight, while working on my car, I accidently damaged the actual "clutch line" that stems from the firewall -> Clutch slave cylinder. Ugh my stupidity at its best..

Its this part:

#11 on RealOEM.

Anyhow, I've poked around and peeled the rubber gourmet at the firewall but the hole behind it is small and I can't really see anything through it.

I know it will be disconnectable but where can I access it?

I am guessing master cylinder area but I was unable to really see much.

Also, if its right at the master cylinder area, after disconnecting / replacing, will I need to bleed the master cylinder, along with the slave cylinder?

Kinda frustrated but I am taking it slow.............................. :\

THank you in advance!

Did you have any luck figuring this out? I have rebuilt the engine in my Mini but I still had no idea that the master cylinder was cable actuated!
