16V Oil Filter Housing

I own an '85 SPG with 170k miles. Recently I noticed excessive oil =
leaking from somewhere above the transmission, however I had =
considerable trouble finding the leak. It turns out the oil is leaking =
from the oil filter housing, from a crack in the tapered hole for the =
oil pressure sensor. The reason I could not find the leak originally =
was because the oil leaks right on a half shaft from the transmission =
and while driving the oil was evenly distributed throughout the under =
workings. I have gotten conflicting prices from dealerships on the =
housing and am currently searching for a used one. I am wondering if =
anyone knows or has suggestions on the torque that should be used for =
the 2 oil lines that come out from the housing. If anyone has any other =
tips or suggestions that might apply to this task please tell me.
