  Ronny, 

  Either replace the crush washers at the fittings or replace those transmission cooler lines and the hoses.  No additive to the tranny.  It's normal to see some build-up of road gunk on the rubber hoses that run from steel lines to radiator if the connections are weeping.  If you have a live leak as in dripping it needs to be repaired.

  Take care,
  Dick

    My 1987 560SEC has very minor leaks from some pipes coming and going to the transmission and from the side of the tranny.
    Will an additive like StopLeak work or is that not recommended?
