Transmission Line leak 2004 xjr Questions

Well seems my motor mount issue caused another one. After changing both mounts and warming the car up one of the transmission lines leaks where the aluminum meets the flange where it transitions to rubber. Its aluminum to aluminum in that area. has anyone repaired this? I believe the mount pulled on it causing the leak. Its very slight but happens once car is warmed all up. The line looks brand new and honestly you'd never know it had an issue looking at it. Trying to avoid unneeded disassembly. Perhaps an epoxy of some sort? Photo and part # if that helps
Thanks
Thanks

Your finger seems to be pointing to a crimped flexible pipe termination onto the aluminium pipe. I have to say that in almost all cases, the only cure is to replace the pipe, with it's flexible attached unless you can find a shop with the necessary crimping gear. From your description of the circumstances, the pipe might also be cracked. Probably best to remove the pipe and inspect it on the bench.
