I would think the oil gauge in the cluster reads the temp, just nothing to display since it starts at 160.

It is very normal to blow hot air from vents before the oil really warm ups. Because air that comes from the vents uses the heater core which is connected to the head, that coolant circulates in. Coolant warms up much faster than oil.
