I'm retrofitting a 2002 VP 5.7Gi-BF to repower my boat. The engine didn't originally have a power steering pump & oil cooler, I bought the parts (plus the PS mounting bracket) and have mounted the bracket and PS pump on the engine. My question is how / where to mount the PS oil cooler; I haven't found a picture or diagram that shows how / where this part mounts on the engine.

The schematic diagram shows a mounting bracket on the oil cooler (see link; part #9, 3861786), but doesn't indicate where it attaches to the motor.

If anyone has this motor / setup and can post a picture of the mounted PS oil cooler, it'd help me a lot. I've poked around, looked and tried to guess, but I'm mystified. As the saying goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words"... in lieu of a picture, if someone could describe where / how this thing mounts on the motor, I'll go with that.

Thanks for any help.

For reference It looks like it may mount on the rear starboard side of the engine area using one of the flywheel housing bolts sort of like seen in the following photo,
