I do think in the short run he usurped Jamie's place on the canvas, which they addressed somewhat in story, but I don't think they went far enough in a real rivalry between them (as you said, Jamie had long moved on from Blaine and was disgusted by Cecile). In the long run, Sandy didn't hurt Jamie - both characters were left behind.
When I initially read about Sandy's origins I did wonder if they might have implied he was gay-for-pay, or bi, but of course in soapland male escorts never have sex with men (this continues on soaps today - most recently Neighbours).
