    72/73 S feed/return oil pipe/ tube

    An acquaintance want to mount a frt oil cooler in his 72E (like it is in a S).

    a. What is the material that was used for the feed and return pipe/tube?
    b. is there a picture that shows how the original pipes/tubes run through the body?

    Thanks in advance

    The hard lines don't run through the body for '72 - they run on the outside of the car along the sill (rocker) on the passenger's side (LHD car).

    They are made of brass.

    Here's the layout which is unique to the '72 models due to the (forward) location of the oil tank:
