Same as on a type one, but some mods to the fittings required. Very hard to plumb around the fan housing and rear support bar. Easiest way is to get a
Berg kit so it goes together properly.

Great thread on samba. Prefer the one half way down the page, both lines plumbed into the main oil gallery. I thought the Berg setup was better than
those pictured. I've done a few over the years and the best was copper pipe extensions with a flare and gland style fitting. Finding something that
suits is time consuming as different fittings are often hard to come by.

Heres what I did to my motor, I went through the fan housing with this one (not enough time, money or patience). Seems to work fin and I do not have
any issues with cooling. I reworked the part of the fan housing I removed by using fibre glass matting (no photos though, I'm too ashamed  )
The only problem I had by doing it this way was the outlet pipe was the lowest point of the engine. got snagged a couple of times but only whilst
getting the engine in and out.
So dont do it how I did it

Hah looking at the huge pictures I've posted, note the awefull clearancing I did with the top oil pump bolts. Honestly they didn't make a drill bit
big enough in those days. 
I was using a 30mm melling oil pump too, never got the dam thing to seal against the case so was always leeking oil. but as the saying goes "an oily
engine is a happy engine "
