All you can do with the brake pipes is what you have done, I've never failed to get one off with some heat and mole grips eventually but then like you say the pipe generally has to be replaced. Yours look very clean and can't see any reason why they wouldn't undo with a spanner 🤔. Be careful as if you get it too hot the hoses sometimes blow out from the ferrel if they are to close to the union.
As for the clips sometimes a proper trim removal tool can remove them well but when you can't get to them to squeeze the tabs on the back it's luck whether they break or not.
Car looks very clean and tidy, good luck 👍🏼
