It's really not necessary or practical unless you are sitting at a traffic light for two hours at idle and the outside temperature is 125 degrees. Seriously.

you could add cooling fins to your oil pan.

you could make little brackets and bolt a couple of CPU fans to the side of your cylinder, wire em up to the motor, or your lights.

I suppose another question would be: does the engine have an oil pump? I don't know how well the oil cooler will work unless there is something to pump the oil through it

This;
Thermosiphon isn't going to work well, if at all, with thick oil...
Would maybe radiate some heat but without a pump what's the point?
