Has anyone replaced their Oil Cooler?

[SVT_Mayo]

Today I broke one of the nipples on the oil cooler while conducting a simple oil change. My oil filter was on really tight where I couldn't get it off with my hands, so I had to break out the oil filter tool. Get the ring on and down I push and while pushing down on the removal tool it slipped off the grip of the filter knocking the handle right into the nipple and by doing that I cracked it, just the way my day went.

Now, the oil cooler is $80 but has anyone replaced one on this motor? If so, where are the bolts or is there only one bolt (that being the oil filter neck)?

Hey u all just read this thread on changing out the oil cooler iam changing out all of my coolant hoses and noticed a nick on one of the nipples on the cooler so I’m not going to take a chance and leave it for 80 bucks I’ll put a new one in did you guys drain out the oil from the truck or just pulled the oil filter off ?

That's an oil cooler? I've wondered if that was its intended function. Damn small cooling fins if it's an oil cooler. Does it perform another function, maybe?
