was the cooler hot?

It did get hot but I suspect it wasn't as hot as the engine temp which was reading 210 F.  I was able to touch the cooler which was very warm with my bare hand for a couple of seconds before it got too hot

You have it right in that the diverter is there to send the oil through the cooler. The pump sends it out the top casting boss and into the cooler. This is also connected to the hole covered by the diverter, the oil will take the easiest path so without something to cover the hole the oil just goes through the filter.

I doubt it would harm anything running with out the valve as it should be the same for those bikes with no coolers, as long as the cooler gets some oil it will send what gets in there back to the cases. The valve is used as a blow off valve in case of a blockage in the cooler as already stated. No temperature related functions, though there used to be a aftermarket setup that bypassed the cooler at low temps.

The heads get fed oil through the center of the filter not the sides, the oil is delivered to the filter either through the small hole (non-cooler bikes) or if there is a cooler (and diverter)  then the oil goes first through the cooler then return back through the lower line dumping it into the filter.

A picture to go along with the words.

Port in the oil filter well, at the bottom of the pic, with red wire coming out.
That's the one the bypass spring covers.

Port at the top with the 2 red wires coming out, that's where the oil pump output connects.

Port at the right, red wire, is the output to the cooler.
