yes i can look at the dipstick but if the oilcooler is up by the grill would the oil run back out of the cooler and back to the sump when not running but maybe run low when the engine is running

I think the dipstick should read like without an oilcooler installed and the oil stays in the oilcooler, so the level showing is telling the truth, isn´t it?
