Anyone know what this is?

Or for that matter, how to make it stop leaking like a cive? I am assuming it is the oil cooler line. Are there any gaskets or should I just torque it down?





Thanks!

The "gasket" on that connection are the two copper washers. Simply unbolt, pull the washers, clean the surfaces and inspect for damage/cracks. Replace the washers and reinstall. If the leak persists there may be another issue.
