Oil cooler lines subject to failure like Defenders?

Good call, Spike; I'm going to try that tape. I going to order some from trailhead, but in the mean time, I bought some of tape at AutoZone. It's similar to the exhaust tape, but it's specifically for protecting hoses and lines from radiant heat. I'm hoping that will protect them till I get the new lines. If nothing else, if a line does fail, the oil should just leak around the tape and down to the ground instead of the oil spraying directly onto the exhaust manifold.
