Default using a fuel pump as an oil pump?

Does anyone know if you could use a Holley "blue" (110 GPH) electric fuel pump to pump oil in say a gearbox / differential cooling system? I ask as i was looking at some pics of the Labatts touring car and it has what appears to be one of the above pumps doing exactley this to cool the rear diff:



Just wondering if it's a straight fit or if any seals need changing etc, anyone have any input?
