First question - does it have an integrated oil cooler.
I know theres a separate oil cooler, but I wasn't sure if there was secondary cooling through the radiator at all.
Second question - if it is integrated is it for engine oil cooling or transmission cooling?
Trans fluid and oil cooler as separate unit by main radiator. See my website in sig, go to the Extra page, manuals show fluid routing.
Its the main manual, page 20.

Yes, there is an in-tank trans cooler in the radiator. Circled below.

I have an issue with anti freeze having got into the gearbox. If the oil cooler had failed, would there also not be oil in the header tank as well?...
It's fresh as hell.
OUCH! That sounds bad.

Corrosion within the radiator and trans fluid lines allowing them to mix? Seems like the place it would occur. Sure you've stopped driving. Replace radiator and flush trans and lines off the top of my head.

it was in for a gearbox service in July and done less than 1k since.
Iv iv just taken it apart for some maintenance (exhausts, timing belt, Intercoolers, recite valves, coolant pipe at back of cyl head) put it all back and now this.
Its done about 50 miles all in - yes it's off the road til I get to the bottom of it.
I'm curious as to why the anti freeze isn't mixing with the oil. The anti freeze is clean as when it first went in the other week.
However, it's coming back apart and every component is going to my radiator and oil cooler guy for pressure testing -
