Hello everyone. let me start by saying Ive searched but havent turned up anything yet. I have a 71 F250 camper special with a 360 and a remote oil cooler that has recently started leaking oil. From what i can tell the leak is coming from the engine side of the oil cooler adapter that sits between the block and screw-on oil filter. I havent taken it off yet but i suspect it is a bad o-ring. My question is if anyone knows where or what part # the o-ring might be.
Thanks a ton for any info you guys can give

After looking further it looks like this is where it is leaking

Another photo from directly underneath of the engine. you can see where the gasket has pushed out and looks like it is leaking from all around the seal.

No o-ring. It's a gasket.

Seeing as how you have oil on your fuel pump; I'd check that gasket too.
