Yep, it sure is!

On the JDM model, the brake booster is on that side, but on the USDM it still routes that way (guess they didn't want to redesign the plenum) and then through the battery compartment, then through a little channel that runs kinda inside the firewall area to the other side of the engine bay, to the brake booster.

Convoluted eh?

So if that is a brake booster line then am I wrong in assuming there is some trace of brake fluid in that line ?

reason being that many SS braided hoses specifically say they cannot be used for brake fluids. So wondering which type of SS hose would be used

Nah I must be confusing "him" with someone else. Don't know him/her personally.
