Default Should I replace this brake line?

I was replacing my nss switch my jeep the other day and noticed by back right brake line was looking a little rough. I don't know how long it's been like this, but I just want to know if I should be worried.

Any advise, I will probably just replace it. None of my other brake lines look bad at all.

Looks like a parking brake cable to me. If it still works it won't for long. I'd replace it.

Alright I'll get right on that as soon as it gets back from the shop. I don't know how they didn't see it during inspection though..
