   does anyone know wich is the outlet and return where the sandwich plate goes onto the block? i.e., theres 2 holes, one on the left as your looking at it and the other in the centre.. just want to know which is which.?
   
   thank you please.

   are you sure mate, as i went round my mates house earlier to look at a stripped down engine and it looked like the oil pump feeds into the outside one, then it obviously goes through the filter then onto the rest of the engine.

   cant be 100% but im prettty sure the oil feed goes it to the centre of the filter then back out the peripheral holes, il have a look at mine tomorrow, il be going up the garage. thinking aboit it it surely must b that way or the sandwhich plates would feed unfiltered oil through the cooler, which wouldnt be ideal.....
