try changing the oil cooler common on a 16v for failing and most mistake it for a failed headgasket worth a try

Bypass the cooler, flush the cooling system through and see if the oil comes back.

Bargain.

Just disconnect both pipes from the oil cooler and bridge them with some copper tubing and jubilee clips or similar and refill the coolant and run it mate.
