Pin hole in the fuel line cooler?

Edit, I see the bubble at the fitting, loose fitting or o-ring?

It tells me that — if you don't have the insulation over the fuel line cooler — the refrigerant oil will spray all over instead of being contained in the rotting insulation.

On the bright side, better refrigerant and oil than fuel.

I recently found a leak in the same place. How hard are those O-rings to replace? Looks like the hard lines coming out could be tough to clear the cooler.

I'm sure those 25 year old black o-rings looked sweet...

Sean are these O-Rings included in the A/C System O-Ring Kits offered by our big three suppliers or are these separate?
