Systems are provided for an integrated oil shroud and pump oil pickup. In some examples, an assembly may include an oil shroud element configured to enclose a lower portion of at least one rotating gear of a gearbox, and an oil intake element with an oil filter and an oil outlet configured to couple to a pump of an oil recirculating circuit, where the oil intake element is in face-sharing contact with the oil shroud element.
