Default Where's the oil cooler?!

Okay all...follow up to my last post. We've got it in the garage and have the Haynes manual out, but can't seem to find the oil cooler. Stupid Haynes has a close-up but I can't figure out the location. It looks like its by a "big gaping hole" which could be a cylinder of an exposed engine or more likely part of the air filter.

Any help?

I'm not sure if the '87 NA has an external oil cooler. If it does its at the right side of the nose. Otherwise you have the one that cools off the engine waterjacket. It is located under the spot the oil filter screws on.

Take off the square thing the oil filter screws onto.
