You can see the slip-fit fittings i'm talking about here. It's the black hose butted up against the plastic collar on the AN10 elbow fitting.

It's recommended to use clamps on pushlock hose and fittings when they're used in systems that may experience a pressure surge.
I've used pushlock lines and fittings for my oil cooler setups for the past 5+ years with no issues. It's easy to get -10 fittings for the mocal pates.

* We recommend using Pushlock Clamps to ensure the hose does not come off if a pressure spike occurs! This is most important in oil sytems!

I tend to use Aeroquip hose on my setups, purchased from Summit in the large rolls.
The clamps are also pretty cheap:
