No doubt the radiator type work well, they also give you cabin heat much 
faster. They use 2x+ the electricity though and much of the heat is wasted 
because it goes into the radiator and gets radiated out to the outside world.

If it is not expected to be cold for long where you are, you might try 
hanging a trouble light under the hood (or 2 of them if you like).

Or, you can get the magnetic heaters that just stick on to the oilpan to 
keep the oil warmed up a bit.

Or, the kind that goes in the rad hose. All much easier and probably 
about as effective as the in-block heater.
