What I'm hoping someone can clarify for me is this: it is often suggested to only check the oil once the oil lines to the front-mounted oil cooler are warm enough for the external thermostat to open and send oil to the external cooler.
I think this would apply if the loop forward of the thermostat had been opened up for some reason, or, perhaps if the engine sat drained of oil for an extended period of time.

Just my 2 cents...
