Coolant line under oil filter

My 82 motor has just one outlet under the oil filter and the 84 motor I installed has a tee that makes 2 outlets. What do I need to do? I dont see any way to pull off the tee and replace it with the single outlet so I'm asking you.

Put a peice of hose on the tee and the plug the end with something.

I assume you took off the beehive oil cooler and put on the FMOC filter pedistal from the 82.

If you cut the tee off, double clamp the hose for safety.
