Bad oil cooler?

So I have an 06 SS/SC and I have oil cycling through the coolant system. There is also oil dripping down from the oil cooler. I am almost 100% positive the oil cooler is the issue. So my question is does the whole thing need to be replaced or can this happen from just bad o rings or a gasket or whatever? I'm going to guess the whole thing needs to be replaced but I figured i'd ask first.

As of right now that's the plan. Just wanting to see if I am maybe missing something. Just finding an oil cooler is being a real bitch. Dealerships don't have them and I can't find them listed in parts stores. Just hoping to find someone who has one for sale.
