Bleeding Red on Christmas Day...

So, I had the time and inclination to take out my trusted 300D. Upon checking everything over, then firing up the engine, I noticed red fluid leaking, squirting from the transmission cooler return line, the flex line that goes into the radiator.

It's leaking where the tube goes through the support, through the bracket connected to the oil pan?

So, now I have a dilemma. The nearest shop is 20 miles away.

Do I call a flatbed? Or do I try to temporarily patch the line, and drive it over?

What to do?

What I think/know happened, the rubber grommet that holds the line wore away, causing the metal bracket to wear-away the line...

Now my car is stuck...

Any advice would be much appreciated... Merry Christmas!
