you can order from Cummins. Its pretty cheap. its a good opportunity to flush the cooling system while your at it. Its bolt on simple but there are o rings for the cooler that you might want to replace too. Is it leaking oil or coolant. I think the oil flows through the cooler and is surrounded by a jacket of coolant.
