I have had a few of these...replaced with a new one every time I overhauled the engine.

Oil does not need to reach 212 F to drive away the water. If that were the case no vehicle I every owned would last more than 6 months. I have not found anything specific to cars but written anywhere but anything do with aircraft states the minimum is 155 to 165 F. I think it should be a little higher for cars but it does not have to be over 212 degrees.
