Your best option is to completely remove the fitting from the intake pipe. If it's attached useing a compression fitting it's very easy. If it's soldered cut the pipe off as cloose to the faucet as possible and replace with a compression fitting. Then proceed to replace the faucet. Sounds like a major job, but it's actually pretty easy.
Now that I have a better understanding of what your trying to accomplish, I'm suspecting you want to retain some classic fixtures in place. Send me the pictures you have and I'll try and offer some suggestions. Send to [email protected].
