Against this guy I would just call him down and not raise the flop since they're only calling with trips and folding things we beat which they would have continued to put more money in with.
OMC's come in forms other than nits. For instance:

Yep, that comports to what I've seen from many OMC's.
While many OMC's are nitty, the more defining quality is that they LOVE to slow-play when they do enter a pot, so it's advanced age + reliable passivity that defines the OMC more than how tight they are, IMNSHO. I've seen OMC's VPIP with all sorts of hands, especially when they're defending their BB.
You can almost hear their thoughts, "I'll teach this young whipper-snapper what happens when they always raise and never limp..."
In this instance, apparently V didn't have trips when he called SB's donk bet, since he folded the river, when trips would have been a boat. If he's calling the donk lead with something other than trips, he might also call a raise. Doubtful he's folding many over-pairs to the board, or too many NFD's or combo draws.
If he's folding hands we beat, that's also fine, since we're denying equity from his draws and worse PP's that could catch up.
