Oil Cooler Line

Ok, I'm not 100% sure if but I'm pretty sure that this is an oil cooler line... Now could I just patch the hose for temporary use? lol Like you know how you patch a bike tire! lol.... Just asking..........

That does not look like an oil cooler line, but I'm not sure what it is.

If your oil cooler line has a leak, you'll have oil covering everything on that side of the engine bay (happened to me).

I'm not quite sure what we're even seeing...Is that the battery at the bottom left?

My guess is that it's a power steering line.

There's nothing you can do to patch it. The lines are high pressure and must be replaced.

My power steering isn't working in the first place so thats cancelled out.... And thats my battery and tray. The circle with the puncture, is coming from the front of the engine where the circle at the top right is at. (TII engine) and the line runs about 2 in half feet long into the front of the radiator, where the OC is. So it has to be the oil cooler line.... I went to corksport since it's only like 15 minutes from where I live and bout the stainless steel woven OC lines for 130, not a bad price.... And there was oil all over the place on that side of the engine bay, also it was in my rim and my bumper!
Thanks for the help.....
