Default Correct way to hook up this Setrab?

Cooler has 3 ports on it? 2 have -an12 male ends which I assume I am to use, but one is on the top and the other is on the bottom. The third has a plug which appears to be -an10? My too small B&M has both ports on bottom. Pics:

White ends are the -12an . The black is the -10an. Should I run both lines out the bottom, or is the Setrab made to go in one side and out the other? Found nothing on the Setrab website. Thoughts?

Someone may have added that port on the bottom (the side with the one port) to drain the cooler for oil changes? Most I know, myself included, don't bother unhooking a line to drain the cooler at all.

You want the cooler to be mounted with the side w/ the two ports facing up. That way the oil fills the cooler and you get max cooling. If you mounted the ports down the oil would take the path of least resistance and go through the lower part of the cooler only.

So I will need to close the port on the single side with a fitting, and switch the bottom one to a -10an. I went and looked at my current one and it has the ports on the bottom.
