The '88 911 I am planning on buying is about perfect. One "big" problem is that one of the solid oil lines that run under the car to the oil cooler in the right front wing has been been hit by a speed bump and is dented.
So my question is how severe does the dent have to be, before the oil line needs to be replaced? And is there any possibility of fixing the old oil line or does it always require a new line? And thirdly, in case getting a new oil line is the only option, what would be the most economical yet good quality part I should source? Any aftermarket options or is Porsche OEM the only alternative? Any suggestions where to get the part for a good price? I'm afraid to ask what a Porsche Center would ask for it...
