Default B20/Vtec oil cooler problem??

Ok im really in need of information. I bougth a B20 block with nothing on it exept for the crank and main cap. But i have a B18C engine. So everything went on the B20 . The only problem is that on the B18C there an oil cooler and i got the water pump pipe of the b18C. On the B18C block there a fitting that's goes for the oil cooler but not on the B20. The oil cooler as two line an output and input for the coolant. The input line is ok but i cannot plug the ouput line since i dont have the fitting on the B20 block. Can i bypass this fitting and put it somehere else on the block, without having to give it to a machine shop. The thing is that the block and tranny is already install in the engine bay and don't really want to get it out again for that?? It's been so long im trying to finish my engine any good idea would be so appreciate.
Thanx ALots

Yes, just tee it into another coolant line and make sure its clamped tight...Watch for leaks
