Which hole is the inlet for the stock oil cooler and which is the outlet. It flows up from the oil pump to one of the holes and into the stock oil cooler and then back into the engine. I need to know which one is which because my flow for my external oil cooler/fan combo is directionally dependent going through my oil thermostat. I was told it was outlet at the top and inlet on the bottom by the sales rep, but after looking closely at my case, it looks like the outlet is at the bottom.
I think the blue path is the outlet to the stock oil cooler, and the red path is the inlet back into the engine…is this correct?? Attached thumbnail(s)

Maybe you could get an air nozzle and try blowing into each hole, and see which one comes out the hole for the oil pressure relief valve -- pretty sure that would be the cooler inlet hole (if I remember the diagram correctly).
