I have a 2000 Chevy 3500 pickup that is leaking a bit of oil from the oil cooler line [img:8ed835a560]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/448417_DSC02812_1.jpg[/img:8ed835a560]connector at the oil filter. I am ready to order 2 new connectors, one in and one out even though there is just 1 leaking at the moment. Are there any o rings that I will need to replace when doing this job? I have attached aphoto of the leak.
Thank you

If I recall, the fittings are tapered and don't require o-rings.
