Hi-pressure A/C hose

Dear Diesel Demons:
As some of you may remember, I had my 300D repaired after a collision in January and I'm glad I did. But now the time has come to finalize the A/C system and my mechanic says I need a new hi-pressure hose.
Some folks here have suggested (to others) repairing the hose at a local A/C shop but my mechanic says it's not a good idea to repair a 300 PSI hose - that it should be replaced. Can anyone confirm/deny this?
And is there anyone who can help me with a part #? I've got an '83 300D Turbo Diesel.
All best,
Diesel Fitter
