Make your own out of your old ones. Or delete the oil lines all together.

There's a bunch of threads on here about those lines. The general consensus is to either make your own, or delete.

I'm in the "make your own" camp. That's what I did over a year ago, and not a single drop since then.

Others like the deletion option, which does simplify things, but I like the idea of an oil cooler.
