one hole and replacing the adapter with a Type 1 adapter. Worked just fine.

Umm, no, the Type 3 has more fins and a greater cooling surface area.

Nevertheless, Type 1 and Type 3 engines are the same. The Type 1 simply has
the
oil cooler mounted vertically, while the Type 3 has it mounted horizontally.
In addition, theres a hole to plug up when making a Type1 engine outa a Type
3. And there's the oil filler spout. That's it. I wouldn't have believed it
either, if I hadn't seen it.
