The reason I got into this thread in the first place it to try to

is
ZERO! (Unless you have a BIG leak).

You are just splitting hairs. No, oil is not dumped out of my
airplane's engine taking excess heat with it. Neither is water dumped
out of my car's engine, yet the car engine is still a "water cooled"
design.
