Got the radiator out today there's more oil than water in it. The heater matrix will be in similar I guess. Is there any sort of product to disperse the oil and break it down?

Forte do a special one for cleaning out cooling systems post oil cooler failures. It is called something like Forte Coolant Flush for Oil Cooler failures Thumbs Up!

Forte do indeed do a product called Cooling System Flush, but it will not remove oil sludge - it is a de-scaler. 

The oil removing stuff TB is talking about is Forte Bio Degreaser
