The oil cooler has been built into the engine in earlier models. I doubt it's been changed.

I think you are looking at the charcoal canister for removal of fuel vapors from the gas tank so they don't vent to the atmosphere. -California model, only. When running, air is drawn back through the canister into the intake to burn off the fuel captured by the canister.

O, Woe is me!!
The oil cooler is an oil/water heat exchanger, not oil/air, so there's no small radiator that you may be looking for. On this shot of my engine, removed for a shifting issue nearly three years ago, we're looking sown on an upside-down engine, front of engine is towasdrs the bottom of the picture. The oil cooler is that canister with water hoses going onto the sides. in your shot, you can see part of one of the water hoses behind the headers.

That is the fuel vapor recycle devise. You were apparently looking at a California bike.
