The Mazda coolers are aluminum, the stock Porsche oil cooler fittings are metric but ~ AN16 (1 inch).

Its hard to argue that the factory made the oil lines the size they are for a reason and anything smaller would cause too much restriction. But I have seen a logical argument that its Ok to use an AN12 size. I am glad I don't have to decide which size to use. It would be tempting to save the money and go AN12.

The vendors make "weldable" aluminum AN fittings for welding to anything aluminum.
