Question Automatic Transmission Cooling Hose leaking



The AT cooling hose on my my 300SDL is leaking. I tightened both ends as tight as I could and it still leaks. Is it possible that the rubber material deteriorate over time? Or I did not tighten them enough? They may be the same one from new, i.e. 1987. Is it under pressure?
