I haven't ever seen anything about an optimum oil temp for economy. Other than losses from non-synth oil, which can be more viscous at a cold start.
And Neil has a valid point about increasing aero losses by adding a cooler. That airflow could otherwise be directed around the vehicle instead of throught the rad, engine compartment & underneath.
