My microfilm shows an adaptor used in very early type3s.  It appears 
that this was done so that the t3 engine could use the same oil 
cooler as the beetles of that era.  This is probably what you saw 
once upon a time and were "remembering."  ;-)

I've never seen one of these.  Can someone tell us when these were 
replaced with the one piece aluminum cooler.
