oil leak opinions

I have an annoying oil leak. It is coming from where the a hose connects to the bottom of the oil reservoir. Here is a picture (taken looking straight up the closest hose in is question):



Here is question I need your opinions on. What should I replace? Just the clamp or do you think the hose is bad as well? The clamp is as tight as it will go. I was thinking about putting a radiator hose clamp on it and just cincing it down.

I am asking this question now because I only get one shot at this...after I drain the oil. So I really want to make sure I get it the first time.

Thanx,
DIO

If the threads on the clamp aren't stripped out and you have tightened it down as tight as you can and it still leaks you are probably looking at a new hose.
