You misunderstood the notation. The | means "or", it is not something
you have to type literally.

So the syntax is:
    either a line number (maybe in a different file) or a function name
    optionally followed by a condition after a comma

So in your case probably something like:

    break Old_MacDonald:23, name[indx] =3D=3D 'd'

(I'm not sure what "indx =3D 4" was supposed to do. You can't assign
inside of a condition.)
