I just recently rebuilt my motor and the only thing that is holding me up is on the oil filter housing there is a coolant line and I found out where one of them go but the one I cant figure out is the one on the back of the housing. does anyone know where this runs to? any help would be appriciated.
 
One of them goes to the skinny pipe that comes down from the thick pipe that does from the water pump towards the lower radiator hose.
The other one connects to a longer small pipe that goes down from the thermostat housing toward the water to oil cooler and it's connected to the block with a bracket that is also the downpipe bracket.
I hope that you will understand what I said because it makes me dizzy when I read it over OMG
 
thank you, I understood it very well, i had a feeling it went to the neck by the head but it seemed to long so i doubted it. now it is just a metal tube right? cause i think i lost mine. do you think I could use a 3/8" aluminum line and bend it?
 
I would try to find the OE pipe from a junkyard or from the dealer . Part no MD168994.
If other piping is installed than a copper tubing from a hardware store is better than AL since you can soldier some compression washers at the ends creating beads that will secure the hose better. Don't forget to secure the pipe to the block.
Dizzy again OMG
Mitch.
