You can probably do it without drilling, but not without welding. Not sure I'd recommend it though. By drilling and tapping the oil cooler to accept a 1/2NPT to -10AN 90 you reduce a lot of stress on the cooler fitting. I don't trust my welding skills/equipment so I just took it to a local A/C/radiator shop to have it done.

Here's the difference in the two strategies
