Pulley Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 thats your power steering oil cooler pipe, quite common for these to rust and leak, i know you can get ali replacements, or just replace with oem is a pretty easy job to replace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

straightsix Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 You could fit an aftermarket oil cooler or get a Soarer oil cooler that could be made to fit Or buy the one in the above post - job done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethr Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Quick 'n' dirty fix - just bypass the cooler with 10mm oil hose. My GS300 has been fine for a couple of years with a "temporary" bypass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
