Had a similar problem with my 10V200  (“Bad Puppy”, so named because it marked its territory by leaving oil all over creation due to the oil cooler).  I ended up with a small (2”x5”x 12” or so) oil cooler, with an adapter ending in a barb/bump to match the oil cooler’s barb/bump. It leaked profusely at a bad time when the worm clamp on one end gave way. Double clamping solved the problem. I secured it in place with some angle aluminum and flat stock bolted where I could find the space.
