I would say no modifications to the oil pump is needed. Just a good place to supply the oil. Most kits come with an adapter for the oil filer which screws on giving you a feed location for the Cooler while the filter is just extended a little called sandwich style. Also you have a remote style which moves your oil filter to another location. Best Explained by these pictures.

majority of the "oil coolers" are done with a sandwhich plate and use coolant to cool the oil....this is done to avoid the pressure loss and longevity and to keep the oil in the pan where it is safe.
