Fit the fitting fittingly to the oil pump, and the oil side is taken out.
If you have already disconnected the water side, you can remove the oil cooler.

(It is possible that it is no necessary to fit the pipe, and in stead just blank the holes, but if this is a full flow cooler, then it is necessary. I just fitted one to make sure I did not take a chance and it has worked fine for a couple of years.)
Tried finding a fit at the local fitting fitters, but they didn’t see it fit to find a fitting fitting for that fitting. Following frequent fitful ferreting, they found that the foregoing fitting would not fit found fittings or frequently frequented fittings. Either.
