Default Bolt size for coolant line in block for oil cooler

I'm removing the factory oil cooler and need to find a bolt for the hole that will be left vacant in the block when i remove the cooler.

I mean the coolant line that goes to the block.

Does anyone know the thread/pitch/length etc?

Cheers

Wont you have to connect a hose from the pipe that runs across the front of the engine to complete a circuit? Thats what ive done with mine.

I'm not quite sure mate, the turbo is water cooled I'd expect two hoses but think i only have one.

I think the oil cooler will be removed and thus replaced with a take off plate.

I could even take a water from the front of the block but just want what's the easiest.

My way of thinking Aj is that you must have a feed and return to complete the coolant circuit.

The water lines are just push fittings and as mr Pitts said you need a return for the water.

Otherwise it wouldnt flow .
