Trans cooler lines
Variation on a very old field repair method.
For the past 40 years I've always kept Permatex Form-A-Gasket® No. 2 in my spares box for coolant hose repair.

If you spring a leak, clean the surface, apply a smear of sealant and wrap with PVC electrical tape. To give you an idea of how well it works I made such a repair to a lower hose once and forgot to replace the hose until I noticed the repair several years later.

My nuts are still worth $200 bucks a quarter hour....
Hey, may have just snagged a 95/R380 with carb conversion, needs a head gasket (LOL)......AND I just got 20.166 mpg on my last tank after the head gasket replacement.....can you believe THAT! I have the base idle dead on, no more up and down idle and it starts first pull, and idles at 1k , then kicks down to 675. Smooth as buddah.
