OIL cooling with rad.

ok so i bought this radiator off of ebay for my 1985 GSL what comes to the door is a double core brand new radiator (better then the single core stock eh?)
any way i was looking at it and noticed it has two little pipes at the bottom they appear to be something like an oil cooler
so my question to you is can i run oil through the radiator (theses pipes do not mix into water anywhere they are currently un plugged) without damaging my rad. i have never seen anything like this. and if so how might i do it??

Ill take a pic if u guys want and post it on here

All aftermarket radiators come with an oil lines, in the lower cover, to cool the auto tranny oil. Either leave it (plug or unplugged) or cut it.
