I cut through a brake line with my grinder and now need to bleed the passenger side rear drum.

Can I bleed just the one drum or do I need to do all brakes?

Also, I managed to get the bleed nipple out but destroyed it in the process as it was so rusty. Does anyone know what size nipple I need to buy? There are different ones on ebay :?
 
I would recomend swaping the cylinders at the back. usualy they corode so much, fitting a new nipple may just crack the housing,.

in theory it should be enough just to bleed the side you damaged, but most likely it wil have dripped dry by the time you get it fixed, so I would recomend bleeding the entire system, just to be on the safe side :)
