So today went to leave work, fired my truck up backed up and noticed it was leaking a trail and my oil pressure went to 0 (wasn't making and weird sounds yet) and looks like one of the oil cooler lines blew, less then a month old AC Delco lines, gonna get it towed and looked at, so besides the lines there anything else it could be, the front diff is covered in oil nothing any farther back then that, any other things it could be? No leaks or oil loss before this, ran mint

I think I might have the same thing. I will take a picture tomorrow I'm doing some work on the truck. It could be coming from the oil filter adapter gasket or even the oil pan gasket.

inspect the fittings on the radiator for the cooler lines for leakage as well and anything that may have damaged the line.

They look fine, and can't see anything that would have damaged it, looked underneath couldn't really see anything besides the front diff being soaked in oil

well when the hoses are replaced look at the old ones. are they broken in the rubber part or metal lines or at the crimp joints?

Update: one of the lines was not seated correctly and came out
