Oil cooler lines

My oil cooler lines are leaking.
So I bought some new OEM ones, I have not really looked at it much.
I was wondering how big of a job it is going to be to replace them.
Any hints and tips would be great.

I know, I should have bought the aftermarket kit but these are cheaper and if they have lasted 10 years, I say why spend the extra coin.

because if they do break prematurely or when your on the road your truck could drain itself out of oil. but i do see your point. but i prefer to be safe than sorry.
 
From what I have read and personal experience was that the factory coolers strip the threads out EASILY and many times you have to do the cooler anyways. Then the kit ends up being ALOT cheaper as you don't want to know what GM gets for the cooler.
