this is an odd question but wich of the two hoses on the side of the engine got pressure???? the inlet or the outlet ?? Im thinking that the outlet b/c te pump is in the engine so it comes out of the engine with pressure ... anybody that knows, i need a little help ..

not a strange question knowing the flow is important if you decide to up grade the cooling system, the oil is pumped from motor to cooler then to oil tank so the line coming from the tank to the motor is the return (less pressure) someone correct me if im wrong dont want to miss inform anyone.

just take one off and crank it or start it for 3-4 seconds and see if its an output or return. i would think the one going straight to the cooler is a pressure line so try that one first.
