Adapter plate for oil cooler that has temp/pressure taps? Does Greddy or Mocal?

I just posted about an oil sandwhich adapter a few weeks ago. The Greddy seems nice since it has two taps to easily add on a few gauges (which I will be doing) but going by the pics I don't see how you would route external lines for an oil cooler.
The mocal has two external ports for oil lines but I see no additional taps for gauge/sensor installation. Am I just looking at the pictures wrong?
< wants a sandwhich plate that will do both but thinks he will just have to get an inline fitting for his gauges.

Is there clearance to stack them? Hrm.

What thickness is the mocal plate? If its roughly the same depth as the Greddy plate then there should be plenty of room to do this. However if i were planning on doing this i would have the two sandwich plates welded together first just to ensure a very good seal.
Saying that though the Greddy plate has three taps...and far as i knew the thrid one (which i havent used on mine) was for an oil feed line for cooler, turbo feed or whatever

Yeah the Greddy has one but I don't want to have to tap my oil pan to run a return line. I guess I'll just go with the Mocal and run the gauges from the orginal pressure sensor tap? In fact I think flamenco T might make something for this but not sure if it's for electrical gauges.
