that's my point, colour aside, when the trans cooler bypass's, the first symptoms aren't over heating.

You can't put colour aside because that is the very first thing that will tell you what oil the coolant is contaminated with.

Update
They removed the oil cooler and tested it and it "blew bubbles" so they've ordered another 
They will fully flush the cooling system too he said. 
I said you need to dump the oil and check for water too so hopefully they will do that 
What other checks need to be done?

Will need a few flushes of both engine oil and cooling system

Replace your thermostat as it may be knackered from over heating as well

I guess it wouldn't hurt to have a look at the dipstick for water and the coolant for oil for a while to make sure that the head hasn't warped.

Who is paying. If its you . Get a nipple from a N/A BF and leave the cooler off then later fit an sandwich plate with oil/air cooler. I take the stock engine oil coolers off for the concern of the issue you had.
