I've finally gotten to the point where I'm moving the tranny from the
bad engine to the new engine --

In removing the steel tranny cooler lines, I found that the clamps
that hold them along the oil pan seem to have been clamped around the
lines. There is no evidence of a rubber sleeve or anything else
between the lines and the clamp. One of them is starting to wear into
the line. Is this SOP for MB? I'm thinking of wrapping the steel line
with Teflon pipe sealing tape (lots of it), or a strip cut out of a
plastic bottle, or ???

Any suggestions or thoughts on the matter?
