I was wondering whether it is under high pressure or just a few PSI. It is not a close loop system like coolant circulation. The engine sump has no or very little pressure.
I have cleaned it out and I will try to see where it leaks and make a determination to replace/reseal it. The joint has no o-ring and it has to be made of softer material ( one or both sides ) for the compression joint to seal. I am just curious whether any members have found the hose to be a problem and how to remedy it.
