This is 100% not necessary. Think of all the cars out in the world that come with oil coolers from the factory. I have yet to hear of any requiring the oil cooler to be drained. I have owned two other cars with factory oil coolers and they did not have any requirement or recommendation to drain the coolers during oil changes or ever.

In the event that you feel an oil cooler becomes contaminated (for example, your motor blows) it is highly recommended to replace the cooler. Its really almost impossible to clean one. The oil filter does 99% of the job to keep crap out, and thats really it.
