Copper main line size

I want to shorten the copper line that runs down the curb side of the trailer about 2 feet and run a longer flex line from the regulator to get the quick disconnect I added at the junction away from the WD hitch bars. The tubing measures 0.663" in outside diameter. What is this? It doesn't match any of the copper tubing sizes I can find.

Thanks,

Al

And the answer is.....

5/8" copper tubing plus undercoat/paint. I was measuring in the dark with a headlamp and didn't notice the coating.

The tubing should be available at most heating and air conditioning shops.
I used one of these shops when I had to replace a damaged section on my coach. Had them do the flaring as well.
