I am running a ECI O-360-A2A built by Aero Sport Power. I have about 20 hours on it in a RV7A and always have very high oil temperature. I have check most of the normal items that may cause this and finally decided to check the vernatherm. It appears to be operating properly when heated in water but when I checked the seat in my angle oil filter adapter it appears to have the port labeled by the ECI instructions as 'Return from Oil Cooler" partially blocked by a gasket.
Is this normal or is the gasket improperly installed or incorrect?

The hole that is partially covered by the gasket is the return from the oil cooler passage.
