Hey Ben - You are the expert so I won't dispute your never seeing a bad oil
cooler - however I can tell you from experience that the O-ring goes. Mine
blew out a couple of years ago - made a big mess. I replaced it and no more
leak.

However, to be clear it leaked Oil - I think this thread said it was leaking
coolant.
