My copper supply line to the refrigerators ice maker/water dispenser has a pinhole leak. The supply line is a copper tube..looks like 3/16 or 1/4" tubing so. It is rather long tube and I would be a pain to replace the entire thing. Is there a way to repair a copper tube pinhole leak?

soldier it? patch it with epoxy puddy? replace it?
