Pretty sure you meant Scotty Kilmer. I'd take what Scott says with a grain of salt. He's now in the entertainment business, and I'm not sure how relevant his information is with current technology. Some of his videos are entertaining, but the advice he gives is sometimes just wrong.
I'd be interested to know what he's referring to when you say he said that. Maybe I'm the one who's out of touch with current technology, but in every engine I've worked on, oil flows from the crankcase through the pump to the filter before going to the rest of the engine. There is a bypass in the oil filter itself, but I don't know of any other bypass for the oil between the pump and the filter. I'd be interested in seeing that video if you still have a link to it.
