I believe you can retrofit the earlier style coolant bypass pipe (that
thing that feeds the head coolant when the thermo is closed) to
eliminate the VW coolant to oil heat exchanger.

That along with a new hose or two and you're set.

You know what? I think Potter has a new one (of the older style) on his
blowout page;
