Oil cooler coolant leak.

It's been a year. OEM cooler seals are leaking again. A FCP cooler arrived late to install last week. The OEM one is bent from previous owner maintenance. I ordered a tool to remove the transmission lines. I'm looking for part numbers. The trans oil plastic hose end clips and inner trans cooler line o ring seals. Might as well replace the small parts with a cooler replacement.

Pulled the oil cooler today. Waiting on transmission line o ring seals to put it back together. UPS should deliver today.
The line tool made removal easy. Both lines were disconnected in less than a minute. A little oil was lost but not enough to be concerned for a bit. I'll have the level checked by a shop.
