The way this is set up it is purely thermosyphon for any flow and cooling. It likely won't be much.
That's kind of what I was thinking unless there's something very creative done to the inside of a newly made oil filter cover-but it looks like a stocker with lines just tapped into it

The need for an oil cooler depends on how serious you take your sumo riding maybe

I just noticed today that the after market head pipe that was on the bike when I bought it a year ago was at the most 1mm away from the nearby oil line that runs above the oil filter cover ..



Luckily a few taps with a rubber mallet on the underside of the pipe and there's at least half an inch gap there now.

Much better
