Recommend fixes for leaky Tranny Lines

The tranny cooler lines in my truck leak/ooze from their connections on the side of my tranny. The connections are as tight as I want to make them.

Curious what you fellas recommend for directions to pursue to stop this pesky leaking. Stem/Stern replacement? Just new fittings.....JB Weld and Goop all over the threads

Not really on the JB weld.

I cringe a little at spending over $300 at the parts counter just to fix some oozey fittings.

Thanks in advance everybody!
