OEM oil cooler
The 351s of the mid 90s vintage had the oil coolers while the 302s did not. They were oil to water coolers using a plate mounted to the filter boss on the block and had 2 short hoses that transferred heat from the oil to the engine coolant via a special lower radiator hose section. The filter then attaches to the bottom of the plate noted earlier. This also is not the usual FL1A, but the newer FL820S.
I do not know if this is significant, but my 1995 F350 crew cab with 351 has 370,XXX miles and counting. The engine has never been opened, just changed oil - Motorcraft 5W30 - & filter every 5000 miles since 2 December 1994.

Back on topic, I also have that little oil cooler on my 96 F-150 351w. I want to find someone who makes that hose that looks or is a high presure hose with that little cooler built into it.

When I first bought this truck a couple of years ago , I bought a F1A filter then realized it took the FL 820s never saw the cooler til a couple of days ago.
Don't wanta sound like a broken record , but that is a lot of miles, hoping to get the same out of mine, Oil is leaking either from the rear of pan or the rear main seal, gotta get it looked at I was a quart and a half low come this time around , I change my oil every 3000 miles.
