Oil hose change

[Let off some steam Bennett]

The bottom oil hose on my mk 1 tuscan has started to weep slightly. Its the smaller hose that goes from the bottom of the oil tank to the engine block. Apart from the oil i will loose from the tank do you think i will loose much from the engine itself when the hose is remove . Thanks

Is it weeping from the hose itself or does it need one of the ends tightening?
