By memory the "cross plug" has something like a 4-5mm hole in it . I think this was in case the oil bypass failed or got blocked you still had oil directed to the crankshaft bearings. I had heard that running an oil cooler has about an extra 15% cooling ratio on the oil temperature for an engine.....Hot Aussie climate , maybe good idea if working your Carrier, Cheers Andrew.
