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)?

Here is the PART
