Is it the hose that goes to the oil filter on the inner fender (driver's side front)? If so, the is an engine oil cooler line. It will either have a quick connect where you push down on it and remove a retaining clip, or it will bolt on. There will be an O-ring there that usually goes bad and causes a leak.

LEt me know if this is the item you are looking at. If not, can you take a picture of it and upload it for me. IT's hard when one isn't there to see and I want to make sure I am correct on the part you have mentioned.

The only thing you can do is unbolt it. Would it make things easier if you removed it from the inner fender?
