Is there a simple way to patch this by cutting out the bad spot and using
pressure fittings or something similar? I don't want to try soldering in
that confined space. Any suggestions?


If you don't want to solder it, get someone that can. Given the location,
there is no 100% perfect way to repair a tube in that location that you
can be completely comfortable with. Cut the tubing right at the hole,
sweat in a coupling and be done and be confident it will not leak like a
patch could while you are away on vacation.


Agreed. Why keep looking and wondering.....
