Default 05 STR leaking transmission line

Was doing a oil change today when I took off the bottom cover I seen oil on it looks like the transmission line is leaking. Is this a dealer part. I can't find it online

Is this the line to the cooler?
Is it leaking where the rubber section joins the steel part ?
If so a search should provide a lot of info.

Default Leaking transmission line

I think I have the same problem, but not sure, so I took a few pics and hope to get some info on the piece that simply looks like a bracket to hold the two lines???

Is this just a bracket for the two "one-piece" lines, or does it join four lines?

There is fresh fluid at the bottom of the black plastic bracket piece...

See attached pictures and thank you in advance for your knowledge!!

I did some more searches around the forums and found out that our lines going to the trans cooler are one piece.

So this black plastic piece is just a bracket.

Usually the lines leak at the rubber to metal crimp?

I checked those areas and the lines look bone dry...hmmm

I will look some more in the next couple days to see if I can find any pinholes or areas where the leak could be coming from.

I wonder if some sort of epoxy could be applied to the outside of the line with a crack/pinhole in it instead of replacing/cutting out?
