Heater Hose question (3 Viewers)

Ive been monitoring a coolant leak on one of my heater hoses. Doesnt seem like the leak is getting worse so Im attaching a pic to ask if this is something to worry about? Maybe replace the hose already? Looks new as my mechanic baselined it last February.

I have a camping trip 3 weeks from now so getting the truck dialed in to make sure its good to go. TIA

I would replace the heater valve. Yours isn’t the worst I’ve seen, but that is one way those heater hoses start to leak.

X2 on comment above. If the heater valve is original then that's likely your problem.

Both the heater valve and hose were replaced less than a year ago.

Get in there, get your hands dirty and see exactly why it’s leaking. Maybe just need a tighter clamp ? I just did a rear heater bypass hose and rockauto has the valve for about 25$.

Those do not look like the Toyota clamps I used. But the heater valve is not looking like it is only a year old
