I believe they are a M22x1.5 standard thread but they have an interesting sealing method, like an AN has its flare seal but these are more rounded. That's why i reused the Benz fittings.
Might be able to use a regular metric fitting though.

Are you running an evans waterpump? I'd be concerned about covering up the radiator too much on a motor that is known to have cooling issues to 7.

I have an oil cooler from a BMW M70 V12 engine sitting on the shelf that I intended to use in my stillborn 944 Spec car. A Google search will show pics, it is designed to fit under the radiator and even has metric fittings.
I know that a used oil cooler is a gamble, but several BMW vendors like VAC Motorsports and Turner sell new BMW coolers for under $400 if that is not too expensive.
On my 951 I mounted a second factory cooler in series on the other side of the radiator and it works great on 100+ degree days on track.
