Recommendations on oil cooler fittings

In the process of rebuilding a G60 to go in my MK2 and have started to look at oil cooling.

I'm planning to fit a separate oil cooler using a thermostatic sandwich plate and a 13 row cooler. I'm struggling to get any recommendations on either the correct temp to trigger the oil flow on the sandwich plate (82° or 92°)
And
What size pipes to run between the sandwich plate and the oil cooler. I want to use AN fittings, so choosing between AN8, AN10 or AN12?

Keen to get your suggestions and reasons for choosing one over the other.
