Default Gear box cooler

I know the Spec C now has a cooling bar that runs from the 6 speed box.
I also believe that the fitting points are on all 6 speed boxes.
But is there a pump needed or does the cooling bar work by convection or internal gearbox pressures?

any help would be appreciated, also if anyone knows if there is a specific kit that can be bought. Else if straight forward convection then maybe a diy setup can be done.

I think the six speed box has an external feed-pipe from the pump, so a quick cut and shut could allow an oil cooler to be fitted... have thought of this myself, but don't do as many miles as some on here. More for track-day insurance.
And being old I can't see far enough to go fast anymore....
