i'm looking to get a sandwich plate for my oil. cooler as well, and after some research, this is what i've found.

Here are the specs of the oil filter, so you need to find one that's got the proper diameter so the rubber seal with actually seal, and also you have to match the thread pattern.

Gasket I.D. (Inches):2.01''
Gasket I.D. (mm):51.054mm
Gasket O.D. (Inches):2.49''
Gasket O.D. (mm):63.25mm
Height (Inches):4.067''
Height (mm):103.3mm
O.D. (Inches):3.234''
O.D. (mm):82.14mm
Style:Spin-On Lube
Thread Size (inches):3/4-16

As long as those things check out, there shouldn't be a problem. Keith on club-s12 is running a sandwich plate on his car for his oil cooler as well. I believe he got it through a company in the USA called Summit Racing tho.
