If they see the oil cooler, they WILL point it as the source of the engine problem and as such will impose the labor/part costs to the owner. They will not care about the burning oil issue. PERIOD.

Best course of action is to take the oil cooler out, take the documentation for the oil changes and make your case about potential oil burning issue and see where that takes you.
