Hopefully, this response will suffice to answer the questions raised here without violating site rules...

Should that valve fail to open, it will not significantly reduce the possibility of cooler failure. The cooler itself remains in contact with hot gases and coolant continues to circulate through it. So the very conditions that lead to cooler failure remain in place. The valve only serves to allow the inert gases flowing through it to enter the intake and subsequently, the cylinders where it serves to lower combustion temperatures and effectively retard timing.
