My old Mooney has the oil cooler mounted in the face of the engine cowling in 
about the same place as where Mark's inlet is. The opening is rectangular to 
match the shape of the oil cooler though. Air is forced through it and just 
ends up inside the engine cowling (not ducted) on the back side of the cooler. 
I have no idea whether this is a good or bad way to do it but it is a way. The 
Revmaster VW I owned at one time used a larger size cooler that was mounted 
below the oil pan horizontally. There was an airspace between the oil cooler 
and the bottom of the engines oil pan. I am not sure which way the cooling air 
went through the oil cooler because the cooling fins were verticle. If anyone 
is interested I will send you photos of it or they may be the same on the 
Revmaster web site, I have not looked so do not know.

Dan, this is how I did mine. Very similar to Langford's.
