Let me be the first to warn you, this is not a clean and simple job. Cleatus has youth and flexability on his side..... IF you have big hands (like me) then go ahead and remove the inner fender liner, and things will go much easier. if you are going to pull the oil cooler, then go ahead and re oring it while its off. even though you only have 44K, its age that takes its toll on the orings.

Wow - thanks for going to the trouble to take those pic's - that's a great example that a picture is worth a thousand words. I'll definitely sleep better tonight knowing 100% that its not from a wrist pin!

Retaining clip
If you google what the piston looks like you can see they use c-clips. And if one were to chuck off like yours it would have a clean path to the pan. Think about the path of your oil. The oil cooler makes sense as well but doesn't go through the abuse like a wrist pin clip would.
