oil system routing

[JSC]

This past winter I picked up an 82 550M (Katana) that the previous owner had barrel rolled. Nearly every valuable part was damaged, but the price was right, and it makes a good platform for a project.

After moving and finding new employment it's time to start that project again, sooooo... The PO had installed an aftermarket oil cooler using what looks like automotive plumbing fittings, but the cooler and lines were damaged during the accident.

When removing the cooler, do these oil passages need to be looped, or can I simply plug em up?

it would depend on how it was routed, got a picture?

I pulled the engine last night to gain access to misc stuff in the frame

the cooler was attached to the two ports pictured below

pay no attention to the gunk - not my fault, i promise

Remove the fitting on top of the case and extract the pressure sensor switch from the fitting. I think you are going to have to purchase the stock oil pressure sensor housing and screw the sensor into that and then bolt the housing to the engine. Not sure what would happen if you just plugged the holes. Maybe someone more familar with how the oil system works can chime in.
