Yup, that's a Rapco dry air pump.  I've had enough piddling with oil
separators to last a lifetime!  Threw in the towel and went with a dry
pump.  Frustrating, since the wet pump worked beautifully -- I''m just
running out of experimentation time with the oil sep.  Probably go back to
it aftert Osh.

The intercooler is located below the engine.  See the attached pic.

I also need to make the sump smaller -- save about 30 pounds of unneeded
oil.  Currently there's 11.5 quarts in there.  6 of 'em are dead weight.

bell housing.
