Do you have ALL the tin that ducts the hot oil cooler exhaust to BELOW the tin? If not, I just found your problem for you. Many cars have that hot air blowing into the engine compartment ABOVE the tin instead of below. Cheap and easy permanent fix.

Parts numbers 8 & 9 are what Danny is referring to. If you're missing these bits, you're not only throwing hot oil cooler exhaust into your engine compartment, it's blasting right on your pass side carb. There's also a part called a "Hover Bit" that's not shown. OEM VW tin needs it. A lot of aftermarket parts have it incorporated into the two pieces
