Some of it depends on how you attached it, and the type of hose.

Make sure you at least double clamp each side and change them ASAP. I just did mine as well and they weren't cheap either - $160CAD

I don't know if its the same for the 92'* but for the 93'* the oil/tranny cooler lines are on the service recall list.

On the supercharged models the radiator has 3 cores. Engine coolant, tranny coolant and engine oil coolant. There was a safety recall on the tranny lines but not on the engine oil lines.
