Oil Circulation Diagram?

That whole 993 oil filter console retrofit is pretty interesting. Definitely something to consider if/when the engine is out and being rebuilt.
I wonder what kind of reconfigurations were required with regard to the oil lines.
Also, that "tank > engine > floor" diagram had me LOL at lunch. The group of people I was with thought I was going crazy.

Wait...I think my understanding of the circulation has been the wrong way around
But, but but...the oil gets filtered *after* the motor? Shouldn't it be before?
Because Porsche, I guess..

I guess the idea is that short of user error or outside of "standard operation" oiling system fcukery, the engine would be the only source of foreign matter in the oil.

I'm reviving this thread to ask this question. To avoid the problem noted in the quoted post - could you pour oil in where it is normally added and have that oil drain out of the pipe going into the bottom of the engine (assuming the pipe is disconnected because the engine is out of the car)?

Doh! I have the book 20 feet from me. Thanks.
Here is what I have and really need to know what is the INLET and OUTLET at the oil filter.
Green - after filtration
Red - before filtration
Yellow - oil cooler (bypass)

Thanks Ricardo. I'm going to seem a bit dim here (maybe "am" rather than "seem") but I'm having a hard time corresponding the location on line in this diagram to the actual parts I'm looking at in the car. As I look at the car - line #13 in this diagram would be right above line #15 on the oil tank. Line #'s 12 and 14 are closer to the top of the oil tank. Am I reading this wrong. I'll order the book. Thanks again.

Jpoint, I have not really worked in this area yet, it is on my list in my C4 project but I am not there yet. So I have to defer to others to help you out as I don't have a mental map yet of the various bits and where they physically are in the car.
