The one with hard line going to it is the oil feed. The first pic with the circles is the oil return.. And, Im pretty sure you can just plug the coolant lines. But having it watercooler is also a good idea. B/c supposedly it totally or almost totally eliminates the need for a turbo timer. But, Id run a turbo timer anyways..

i guess when you say going TO it...would mean that the firt hardline i posted would be feed.

so the hardline in the LAST picture is another coolant line?

Yup, and ***** seals and bearings like clockwork; especially if over-boosted which is like 10psi lol. Throw it out and go T3!
