I don't have the pn, but just about any parts supplier (like Will Tillery) can get you one. As a guy with the oil cooler on my R380, I wouldn't get rid of it. R380's can get pretty toasty at sustained highway speeds. You will need to fab up the cooler lines, they're just as hard to find as the part you have.

I fixed the crank case breather system so the engine is not being pressurized. Then replaced the leaking front main seal. Plus new power steering box and hoses. Looks like the transmission cooling lines are not leaking. Relatively dry engine now. Hoping the rear main seal will heal its self.
