Ned has the correct citation to the ORS. The key phrase is "when engaged in for another". Since a wholesaler actually has signed a sales contract and has a relative obligation to perform, they are engaging in the activity for themselves, not for another. A Realtor does not have the same obligation; they are contractually obligated to market the home for the seller, or are engaged in for another, thus the rules cited in the original post are pertinent only towards licensing.
At NWREIA, we teach our members the right way to wholesale. Generally, since you can't really market to the open public a house that you do not own or are in title (there is a of variety of opinions on the term "equitable interest" and whether having the property under contract satisfies that level), we teach that you should always open escrow with a small earnest money ($100.00) and complete a home inspection. This demonstrates intent that you would close on the property yourself. Then, you should keep your wholesale buyers to a circle of previously contacted "buyers" and not stray outside of that circle.
