This got hung up and damaged when I pulled my engine. Can it be replaced with a soft line??? Tranny is a TH400.

Hard vacuum line for tranny ???

You could do that but it will be more prone to damage and needing to be replaced.
You can use copper line with rubber connections on both ends, can take the heat around the engine, and the rubber will prevent the electrolysis.

You need to use a rigid material that won't collapse under vacuum. Nylon air brake hose is a good, inexpensive choice that comes to mind. Just be careful when routing it around hot parts like the exhaust.
I am guessing you didn't mean that my copper suggestion was not rigid material
As for the rubber couplings at the end being 1/4" of gap between the copper and metal will not be a problem for collapsing.
