My son came back over this morning, and replaced the leaking 3/8" steel tube coming out of the transmission. It turned out I had the wrong fitting screwed into another one that was smaller that apparently came in the trans. I was really surprised, because two fittings came with the transmission designed for 38" tubing, and they wouldn't fit in the tranny outlets (too big). But I found one that fit perfectly, and ran a new piece of 300 psi hose to the oil cooler, and now everything is leak free!

After lunch I'm going to pull the truck out into the driveway and spend some time cleaning up the oily mess on the garage floor, and then we'll be heading out for a test drive!!!
