Uh, that should be oil "cooler". Too bad I can't edit the title . . .

Vehicle is a '96 E300. Today I discovered a coolant leak where the oil cooler's lower pipe/fitting goes into the block. Is it possible to remove the oil cooler without removing the oil filter housing? Looks like "yes" but want to hear from others who have been-there-done-that.
