wow, that's really expensive.  why not have some hoses made, or make them
yourself if you're mechanically inclined?

you can buy aeroquip or earl's hose with the appropriate hose ends, and
it'll be much cheaper.  if you're concerned about reliability, don't
be.  professional racing teams use them, and aeroquip hoses are used
on the space shuttle.

have you figured out how the oil cooler line was damaged?  seems suspicious
that it started leaking after you got an oil change.
