If the line is tight and still leaks, try removing it, clean it good with break clean etc. And use a little red loctite. And then snugR back up tight, wait about an hour and see if you still have a leak. AN fittings are good for sealing, but ANY nick in the sealing area can cause a slight leak.

I got another set from here local and still have same problems.
This truck just likes oil right now and spent lots of time on this problem.

The lines are premade, -3 female ends.
Ok you switched lines and it still leaks? This is the part right above the oil filter.? Did you tap it or get the billet adaptor.
Sounds like we have few choices right now.
1) The fitting with pipe threads is damaged in some way or not tight on the pipe thread.
2) the stock housing if used maybe cracked.
3) the bunts are slightly too long to allow full tighting on the male fitting, not likely since it seems you change hoses.
I would take it all apart clean it good and inspect all fitting, adaptors, gaskets in that area.
Call me if have any questions.
