With that upward loop in the oil cooler lines in the front wheel well, exactly.

that raises an interesting question that I've never thought of or looked at.

Does the front oil cooler have a drain plug or petcock?

Some in the 911 world have added an air fitting to blow the oil down the lines. It at least gets more of the oil out, if not that in the front cooler.
