Oil circulation diagram

Im just in the process of fitting an oil cooler to my Impreza and want to know which way the oil flows around the engine and through the filter. Does anyone have a diagram showing this?

What I really want to know is does the oil enter or exit through the centre hole of the oil filter?

The oil exits the filter through the centre hole.
Don't forget to bleed the system and get pressure before you start the engine!
Do you really need a cooler
