Oil Cooler Hose
Hey guys just noticed I've got a very small leak coming from the oil cooler. Not sure whether its the hose or the fitting but what are some options to fix this?

Can I get a hose shop to make something up?

Probably not. Those quick disconnect fittings are special.

I suggest you get new o-rings and clips from Mazda ($$ I'm afraid) and reattach the fitting.

The end piece of the line is only about $30.

If the O rings are conventional.....and I'm assuming that's the problem, rather than a burr or some such on the taper, CBC bearings or specialist hydraulic places will have them in a variety of materials.
