unidentified broken line & heater hose question

The newbe questions begin. Please tell me this isn't a brake line. Saw this was broken and can't even tell where it's suppose to go. pictured are the break and where it leads to from the other end. Passenger side right below the floor board.

The next question is the two lines running into the heater core are stupid hot, hotter than other cars i've delt with, is this normal? I'm guessing those lines don't hit the radiator until after the heat goes through the core? I still need to update my signature on here but it's an 84 camaro with a crate 350 engine in it.
Recently purchased it stupid cheap.

IT's the AIR line they've failed to reconnect when the cat was replaced.
