Question tubing abrasion causes Oil and AC lines to leak

Not sure if these lines were routed correctly during 2nd engine replacement. Should the right side oil cooler line be routed above the AC suction line that has the 4-wire pressure switch? The oil line rests on the AC line but does have flexibility to me moved higher and away from contact at this crossing point.



Abrasion failure point for oil cooler and AC suction lines.

The TSB is NOT for your VIN range but info in the TSB might help?

Motorcarman, Thank you for sharing the TSB. The drawings are helpful will get me to checking for missing "intermediate connector securing bolts". I grabbed this freeze frame from an episode of To The Garage. I will use for reference when refitting the new AC line.
