1995 C280 Oil leak

Hi everyone. I have an oil leak that is traveling along the supply or return line from the transmission oil cooler (I think) on my 95 C280. I power washed the area and drove about ten miles and the only area I see fresh oil is on and around a rubber bushing and metal clamp that secures the line to the block. I actually have an identical leak on my 05' Nissan Titan so I am wondering if I am jumping the gun or is this a common line to fail?
