This has been done, and you can buy the adaptors from various
sources,  This makes for a rather neat and easy installation,
although you still have to deal with the big air leak created by the
removal of the OE oil cooler.  The other problem is that by coming
after part of the pressure regulating hardware, the pressure supplied
to the bearings is reduced.
