Ramon - I believe you are correct. OMF files are automatically deleted when the file is dropped in Oracle. OMF log files are treated just like the other OMF files. Try it and let us know. But try your test database. :-0

Reading the DBA manual in the chapter 7 refers that  

• When an online redo log file group is dropped, the operating system files are not deleted.
• When an online redo log file member is dropped, the operating system file is not deleted if you are not using OMF feature.

What happens when drop the log file group if using the OMF feature, the files will be deleted
also ???
