Where is my lower oil line? The dealer said it is leaking and needs to be replaced. Any idea? thanks.

Two lines - run from the vicinity of the connection point for the oil filter to the radiator. Combination of metal pipe and rubber hose. They cost a bunch! If you have a good hose shop in town, you can bring in the old ones and they can probably make a new one for you less expensively.

I had the same problem recently and I was not excited about the cost of OEM replacements. However, after seeing what a ruptured oil line did to a 101 FC, I decided not to screw around with a rubber tubing and hose clamp fix. Braided SS is also an option, but pricey too. Replacing with OEM lines is truely a "10min job."
