Thanks.
What is the correct name so I can find one?

Call the midlife!

Ironically the BGB makes no mention of it in the diagrams, doesn't appear in them so no reference to it in there.

@Petrus:  It needs the correct cylinder head (with extra coolant port) to accommodate the plumbing.  Toyota refers to it as 'oil heater' as it helps  the oil  to warm up quicker.

Ok, I get it. Stands to reason. Was already wondering about where to hook up the coolant hoses to.

The Toyota description is exactly why I would most like it.

Appearantñy not an option then?

On the other hand, could perhaps detour the hose towards the throttle body.
