OP, are you referring to the remote transmission cooler for the C43? If so, the drawing you provided is incorrect. For the C43 the hoses come as a set of two. The part number for the lineset is: 202 997 35 82. See ref.# 91.
is: 202 997 35 82.
is: 202 997 35 82.

Thanks Vince, what I'm looking for is what is labeled 70 and 80, I don't remember them being two pieces per pipe/line though, I believe its 2 pipes/lines, one on each side of the tranny, which has securement brackets that get installed with some of the oil pan bolts.
Thnx
Thnx

I believe this PN 202 997 35 82 is correct, but I cannot find it on the market with a 100 percent certainty that I am buying the correct lines.
Correction, the correct part number for one side is below

OP. You appear to be referring to the hard lines. The one on the driver's side (left) comes from the bell housing alongside the engine and turns right across the from of the engine ending approximately under the harmonic balancer. The passenger's side (right) runs from the bell housing alongside the engine ending with a approx. 30 degree bend under the alternator. These hard lines connect to the lineset described earlier. Parts numbers for 70 and 80 are visible in the screenshot from the M-B parts information system. The drawing doesn't match the shape of the lines, but it is specifically for a 1999 C43. These discrepancies do occur with limited production cars.

I live an area where there is a lot of snow/salt when I did my swap I noticed there was surface rust on the threads and the pipe its self, I tried my best to wire brush and clean it out, Once I put it back together and drove it around, it started leaking, I would just like a fresh set, especially because I'm planning on rebuilding/replacing my tranny.

One other thing to note. If anyone ever has the replace the lineset chances are very high that you will not be able to remove the connections at the cooler. The lineset fittings are steel; the cooler is aluminum. Galvanic corrosion virtually welds the parts together. I had to deal with this recently. I ended up replacing the cooler along with the lineset. I have run into this several times over the years on M-B diesels that have an aluminum engine oil cooler and steel hot fittings.
