My answer would be strictly an opinion so ill keep my yap shut but welcome aboard .
Welcome to the site

Unfortunately, that assembly is only available as an assembly. Quite a PITA to have to change the entire thing when just one leg gets damaged.

There are companies out there that will make you a "serviceable" 3-way, but you're still buying the entire thing at first, to get the serviceability down the road. May or may not make sense for your use. Search the site here, think the highly reviewed company I'm thinking of, is up in Canada with you. @zrock was that you that was a customer of theirs?
Is the union block not threaded?
If yes why not just replace the bad section?

Unfortunately BRP thought it would be brilliant to make it not threaded....

Yeah I would replace it once with a line that fixes that design flaw. The price of the line is not bad but changing the line and bleeding it all must stink. I see no benefit vs simply replacing a bad section.

Or you can change it for a Euro version that has the lines split in half 🤷‍♂️

I used HEL performance here in Canada. They have divisions all over the world and are great to deal with
