The above should work fine. However, you have to use Oil or Transmission Cooler Hose.
I tried using Fuel Hose (not on a Mercedes) as Transmission Cooler Hose and it lasted a little over a month before the Hose started getting mushy.

Out here in S. CA Oreilly's/Kragen Auto parts sells the Oil Cooler hose by the foot. It is part of parst America (advanced Autoparts, Shucks and ****).
