Adding aux cooler via the heater engine ports?

This situation probably won't change any other than buying you some additional time. The extra cooler will just plug up too.

Agree, plus the area between the radiator and the additional cooler will be harder to get at and clean.

That's all I want. If the aux cooler plugs up, then I'm still better off since the OEM radiator hopefully won't be.

Serious question: So the HST hydraulic oil cooler on Kubota HST tractors doesn't work, is harder to clean, won't make any difference or.... what? Has someone informed Kubota of this?

Actually, it's not a serious question: it's rhetorical.

Why are you even asking advice on this, you have your mind made up do what you want.

Posts #3, #4, #6 and #10, it shouldn't be hard to figure out.

If I decide to add a small ball valve, which end would you put it on?

And thanks for telling me that. Don't know how it affects the cooling, if any, but I appreciate it.

Put the valve where it is convenient to use. If you are planning on one valve, placement is immaterial.
