Default oil filter water cooled??

Just got another bottom end for my RST, the 1 thats in the car now has 2 water pipes coming from the oil filter area, the new 1 don't. Please don't say I've bought the wrong bottom end!

It may have just had it removed because they are shite anyway!
Has it got the turbo return in the front of the block????

It has the braded oil feed for the turbo in the back of the block near the filter. What do I do with my 2 pipes then that should go to the oil filter thingy?

You can either take the oil cooler from your other engine or just join the two pipes together (if you dont want to run an oil cooler that is)
