Jaime,
How'd you get your thermostat so spotless? (as shown in that last picture)
The short, stubbie hoses are obvious, easy replacement priorities:

Steve -- good advice thanks I'll make doubly sure although it appears that it is right at the connection as the rest of the hose looks bone dry at first appearance - I'll check it.
Jaime -- that's not part of you poking out of your car I hope!!!
(if so, at least protection was being used....) It appears that the leak is at the top connection, is N.013.813.2 for the top washer?
Thanks,

That liong oil line can also begin to seep oil through the rubber hose section and then flow towards the connections and make you think it is the connection. Try to clean it very well and then discover where the leak is really starting from.
To clean the thermostat, use simple green and a toothbursh and rinse with water.

You have a phillips bolt that also needs to come out (#18 and #11). Loosen #14 or take it out completly, your choice. The sill will come out, back first and the the part inside the long side sill. If this has been in your car for eternity... the rubber strip will be dry, hard as a rock, has shrunk, and maybe one with the car... get a new one to replace it (#6)...

for the oil filter drain plug it is part # N.013.813.2 (US$1.00 from Pelican, less from the local dealer if you have a good relationship with them and/or PCA membership)
for the hose adapters (you will need two, one for each line/adapter) is part # 900.123.139.30 (US$2.00 from Pelican, less from the local dealer if you have a good relationship with them and/or PCA membership)
