  The oil cooler can be an advantage if driving fast, in hot conditions 
or in heavy traffic, it does help cooling the engine although it is not 
as efficient as a coolant radiator. Don't worry to much if it is not in 
the direct air flow, air will pass through it anyhow. Rerouting the hose 
is a question of space and hose length, it should be possible to make a 
neat routing but you may have to get longer hoses.
It is preferable to have a thermostat parallel to the oil cooler, it is 
usually in the oil filter adapter but can be retrofitted in the hoses.
In my opinion it is an asset, so keep it.
