I take it we are talking NC30,
only uk motors were fitted with oil coolers,but there should two blank pickups that would need to be drilled.
if you have a photo then put it up.

the cases on them all should be the same - two oil line mounts on the front of the case near the starter motor.
Have you got any pics? Has someone taken one off and welded it up?

If you fit the oil cooler to that engine you will have to drill out the blanks,
But you will also have to change the oil pump,as the oilpump in the uk motor is uprated to deal with the extra oil in the cooler.

Does the NC24 pump have additional little lines t the casing? how does that work, have you any pictures or schematics of this Neo?
I have a 24 pump and want to fit it to my engine...but not sure how the lines run..
