I have a 2010 RX350 and the oil cooler hose started leaking on me last weekend. There was probably half a quart of oil dumped on my garage floor. Drove my car to my mechanic's shop Saturday night and left it there. He called me Sunday afternoon to say he had my car up on the lift. He was absolutely aghast at the design of the oil cooler hose assembly and pretty much repeated dale121's original post above. He had never seen that before. He said I was lucky the oil didn't get on the exhaust system and catch the car on fire. He had it fixed the next day and cost me just short of $500.
