Coolant flow???

Neither the chilton's nor the haynes guides show anything about the coolant system of my L98. I have a hose that runs from near my oil filter mount to nowhere. I also have a hose running from the throttle body to the radiator??? In looking at the haynes guide, I think that hose running from the throttle body should go to the heater control valve (I think thats what it's called) - the black thing on the passenger side of the the motor. Which leaves me wondering where this hose that comes from the filter mount is supposed to go. Appreciate any help.

It's supposed to be an oil cooler. That much I know. I believe it goes to the TB, tee'd back to the radiator, but since I no longer have access to one (and it wasn't mine, anyway), I'll have to let someone else fill in the blanks.
