I have a freshly rebuilt 2.0 and the oil cooler seals keep popping. I'm on my 3rd set and the lower one just started to go again. It's not a slow leak either.

I have tried to install them dry, or with sealer, but they keep going. Seems to be after a spirited drive.

Any tips and tricks? I'm pulling the engine this time.

Where are the flat washers that go on the cooler studs before the nuts?
Some people have mistakenly installed them under the cooler instead of after the cooler.

They are all there in the right spot. Not used as a "spacer" so to speak.
