It is possible I have found gobs of silicone and rust chunks blocking the cooling tubes but that should not affect the coolant temperature overall but would affect the oil temperature more if it was severely blocked it could restrict the overall flow of the cooling system slightly

It sounds like you are describing the oil cooler
