Clean it and solder the crack. Use a Bernz-O-Matic style torch. If you don't have one, you could do the job over the gas-range burner.
If it's standard tubing with a compression fitting, just buy a foot of it and cut to length. You will probably need a new compression ring, too. Both of these are available at Lowe's, Home Depot, and most hardware stores.
