Question Weirdness going on with radiator

Hi everyone,

I am new to the group and have been lurking for a while, I have been working on getting my 2006 road worthy. I have a radiator leaking what smells and feels like oil and someone clearly (I use the term loosely) "modded" it at some point. My question is what parts do I need to fix where it is leaking (see the picture with circle) and what the heck were they trying to do?


where it is leaking

Red and blue replacement parts

Thank you,
Hyde

Someone replaced some of the OEM oil lines with -10 SS lines and fittings...

The leaking part is one if the other OEM lines that have corroded and are leaking.

You need to replace the rest of the lines before it fails and dumps all your oil on the ground... and takes the engine with it..

Well, that wouldn't be good. Thank you for the reply. This may seem like a stupid question, but I would appreciate the assistance; do I need to buy the hoses for replacement individually or is there a kit I can get and just replace them all? Thanks!

There are kits... but it looks like some have been replaced. Maybe look and see which ones have been replaced and see which ones you still need and go from there
