They'd never make it. They'd die of radiation exposure when they went through the Van Allen belts.
An alien species who has traversed light years of distance and avoided extinction long enough to perfect this technology.... taken out by solar radiation.
The last one could be heard screaming "Damn, we didn't think about that!" but then they also remembered, no one can hear them scream in space.

It would be simple to navigate it, because a kilometer isn't jack shite when it comes to the Oort cloud. It's like asking will I directly hit a Humpback Whale when crossing over the Pacific. Sure, you may come close to one, but the chances of you directly hitting one are slim to none. In fact, I'd say it's even more preposterous than that. The cosmos is simply massive, and the asteroid belt is much more densely packed than the Oort Cloud is, and none of our probes have gotten even close to hitting an asteroid. It's really 99.9999999999999999999999999999% space compared to that remaining minuscule portion that isn't. You in all likelihood wouldn't hit any other object.
This theory is complete bullshite. A tree on the golf course is 99.99999999999999999999999% air but I still hit a limb 99.999999999999999999% of the time I try to hit through one.

there are trillions of objects larger than 1 km in it; billions of objects larger than 20 km
probably multiple trillions of objects bus size or larger
sounds pretty dangerous travelling at high speeds

True. But I have to think that if a civilization had figured out a means to achieve travel between star systems, they'd have the means to navigate through something like the Oort Cloud.

ET's have mastered interdimensional travel. Pop through a wormhole on their home planet and end up in downtown Pierre Part.

True. So I was thinking the OC might serve as a type of filter to keep the trashier, low end ET's away. It seems like a fairly substantial obstacle that would take a while to get thru (if it's 3 light years out).

If alien species were to travel here, they would have to be at least a Type II civilization meaning that they are capable of harnessing the energy of their host star.
Humans aren't yet a Type I civilization. A Type I civilization is capable of fully harnessing the full energy and resources of their planet.
If an alien species is capable of harnessing the full energy of their host star, then they sure as hell are capable of safely passing thru the Oort Cloud or completely bypassing it. A Type II civilization will be hundreds of thousands to several million years more advanced than a Type I civilization.
A Type II civilization would laugh at the Oort Cloud. Or perhaps the Oort Cloud would be as insignificant to the alien species as a sunny morning breeze is to a human.

the ET's are the fallen angels
there's no life outside of this realm....which is an incredibly crafted illusion of at least 10 dimensions
by the creator of the universe. and the show's not over.....
