I wonder what the flow rate from that hose from the oil cooler should be?

Also I'm going to see about procuring a pressure tester.

The theory makes a lot of sense because the tank has been eliminated as the source of the coolant.

The source now has to be from the engine. Since the hose that failed was the oil cooler vent, This is the logical conclusion.
