oil filter oil cooler lines repair
my neighbor has a i think it is a 97 blazer 4x4 4.3 auto and the oil cooler lines rusted to the point of a medium leak. i was going to just help them replace the complete line set but now i'm wondering if it is possible to just cut out the bad section and get some h/p oil rated hose and just splice that hose in the bad section? i figure doing a small flare to help keep the hose from just slipping off the line. can anyone tell me if this is a possible fix. the kid has no money and if i help it will be a freebe but he is saving now for another car and will be junking this one at that time so putting a bunch of new parts on it now is pointless.
also he has a misfire and the code is set to po302 and also the p0200 i think it may be p0202 but i told him it sounds like he has a bad injector. anyway i wonder if i can just replace one injector? i see them seperate .or is there some type of quick fix that is a get me by? to by him time for another car? thanks

thanks i sent that along to the kid so he can make up his mind. if he want to do this i will help him out he is not real mechanical. i figure it could be done but had to make sure because i do not know what pressure that oil cooler has on it. i'm leaning on return oil pressure from the filter and that is not or should not be real high.
