I would definitely think 40F, and possibly even more like 45-50F The thing to do is check it around 50F and see how the engine oil temps look. If they're still getting to 180F without having to driving spirited, then you're probably ok. Proceed to check it at 45F and then again at 40F until you notice the engine oil having trouble getting fully warm (~180F). Note the temperature at which that begins to be a problem and then plan on using your block off plate any time it gets colder than that
