If it's squirting oil out it's probably overheating because it's broken and needs to be fixed. Even if it's just a gasket the oil escapes and attracts dirt and pieces parts plants that stick to the engine acting like a blanket keeping you engine nice and warm. Also consider that many air-cooled engines get a substantial amount of cooling from their oil, oil you admit is squirting out, it only helps cool when it's in the inside and at proper levels. Basic steps 1 clean the outside of your engine, this includes the jugs and the oil cooler. You may have to disassemble the cooling shrouds to get ahead of previous sins. Check the fan is it clean? 2. fix leaks. 3. Check fan, bearing and belts, insure you have all the shrouds and baffles for the engine and they're in the right place and in good order and don't have excessive leakage. 4 Check and see if it'running cooler, if not continue to trouble shoot.
The old VWs had two little pieces of tin that were deflectors that went on the bottom of the jugs, it actually clipped between the jugs and hung between the jugs on each side. If the engine was fully shrouded (having all it's factory external shrouds on) you could not see if they were there. With out these two little pieces and it was above 40 degrees outside the engine would die or become seriously damaged after an hour's hard use.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL THOSE PIECES! Not real familiar with Deutzs but the VWs also had a thermostatic bellows that opened and closed dampers for cooling.
