Re: Professional opinions please
a hydraulic separator is a great option. It gives you air, dirt, magnetic, and hydraulic separation in one device. Quick and simple to pipe.

Re: Neg subcooling
Glad you found the issues.
Sometimes old tools are better than new shiny tools. It like having a multimeter that doesn't work. If you can't trust it it leads you down the wrong path

For the money I would try @EdTheHeaterMan's supplyhouse.com solution posted above.
Pictures like this give me the feeling they are the same part.
