I've never heard of one. You might have to piece it together. The hardest part for you will be the adapter for the block. The lines are something we could fab up if you needed us to, or at least supply you with the right hardware. Let me know if I can help you further.

I know a bunch of Nissan pathfinder guys that do it. Depending on the threads and seal, you might be able to look into one of those. I know Summit sells complete kits. I have been considering that in conjunction with my oil scavenging system. Maybe 034 should come up with a kit for guys like you and me? Maybe simular to this:

I guess the key would be finding the part that connects to the original oil outlet... hmmm...

Search on some of the air-cooled sites, I know that years ago some auto-x guys would buy the kits and adapt them to their MK1/Mk2 cars..

Could probably make one of these work, maybe just spin the adaptor onto the OE oil cooler flange in place of the filter, so that the cooler will remain functional:
