Some engines actually have a separate oil cooler [I'm not talking about the transmission oil cooler] for cooling the crankcase oil. and some, like the Jaguar, have heavy cast aluminum oil pans with fins, designed to dissipate heat from the oil.
I agree that the radiator system is designed for and does the bulk of the cooling, but the motor oil circulation system does contribute by distributing and disipating some of the heat.j3h.
