front oil cooler took a hit

Now has a leak.. so I've got a couple of questions..
1) for easy use, can I just plug the oil lines up front until I get a new one ? Just running around town no hard driving
2) can the old one be fixed ? It's a Setrab , or should I just buy a new one .
3) where's the best place to buy a new one?

1. No. You could join the two lines end-to-end in an emergency but keep an eye on temps.
2. Sometimes. Bring it to an aluminum engineering or radiator place. They can clean it, try and fix it and then make sure they pressure test it.
3. Smartracing, Elephant Racing and BATinc as well as others.

+1 find a radiator guy who's good at welding aluminum and you might be able to save it. It'll probably be pretty ugly, though.
