A plumber with a pipe freezer and a tool like a Fein should have that replaced within an hour or two at most. Slice the pipe once frozen on both sides of the coil, drain water out between ice plugs and solder a nice bit of new copper onto a mew cylinder connector to boot. No pipe freezer and add another hour onto that for faffing about draining and filling the system to do the job.
