It's an oil bypass valve, and it is better in than out, can't you just put it back in the way it came out.

Sorry Brandon, its been a while since I have seen one but if memory serves me one end is pointier than the other, it is the pointier end that points up into the cooler.

Hope this helps.
Cheers Sue
