It is my understanding that all fuel systems with a return system will have a larger inlet fuel line and a smaller return fuel line. On my 99 SVT I have at least the large inlet and smaller return. Also the return line generally (not always) comes off the fuel rail at the fuel pressure regulator.
Things may have changed, but look for the two different sized lines coming off the fuel rail.
You may have to pull the upper intake plenum from the car to be sure, but that is only 6 bolts, the egr, some hoses and throttle cables or T-body.

On the oil cooler issue,if you must use an air to oil unit in place of the stoc part you need an oil stat.Cold oil will kill your motor faster than overheated oil.The stoc cooler is also a heater as the coolant flows through the heater matrix it flows through the cooler,helps warm up.No self respecting racer runs hard until the engine oil is at least 130 deg,hence heaters in dry sump tanks, catch the drift here....

The M5 has a moving redline on the tach. As the engine warms up, it gets higher. Pretty cool.

Bro you can actually just look in the engine bay to see if it's got a return line. If you see 2 steel, polish looking lines you've got the return, it's below the intake area and above the trans, basically between there, heading right to the injectors....
