Oil leak

[Voyager]

So I was driving my 1985 FB with the 12a in it the other day and started smelling something, got home a few minutes later and noticed that oil was leaking profusely under my car and when I turned the car off it stopped, and antifreeze started leaking. I came to find that the antifreeze hose connected under the oil filter had torn due to an old spring looking fastening device, cut the broken part off and used a new fastening device, that solved the antifreeze problem. For a while I sat theiyr're putting oil into the engine and turning it on to find it kept on bleeding out under the oil filter. I drained my oil put a new filter on and put 2-3 quarts in, that didn't solve the problem and I managed to locate the source. Theiyr're was a metal tube just letting oil out and I thought it would be a big problem, I noticed a bolt in my peripheral and was able to tighten it by hand a little, and I though "well that's not right" so I grabbed a wrench and tightened it as much as I could, it's in such an awkward place and the oil leak stopped (I know nothing about cars or how to work/fix them, haha) story! I'm gonna try and upload this picture.

Take it you have the "beehive" water-cooled air cooler on your engine?

Looks like the banjo fitting was loose.

Good thinking there Keith. Looks right on the money.

Ahh that guy was done up mega tight when I replace the o-rings on my beehive cooler. Was scared with how much strength I had to find to undo it! Took a while
