Mine has been problem free for 3500 miles. I'll be pulling the pan this week for an oil change and will take a look...

Do you know what hose Racer Parts Wholesale sent you? I received FC598 and per Aeroquip's spec sheet this is not socketless and requires a crimp. FC598 requires a crimp fitting. And FC332 is the correct socketless hose. I'm going to email RPW right now and see what they say.

edit n/m... found these two threads and FC598 seems to be the correct hose:
