Yeah I know its ugly and that's why I want to avoid it...plus you have to have that huge loop going rearward first.  I actually have all the bits to make one with the compression fittings but hate the look of it.  The other version I have seen uses stubbier brass fittings but I don't want to use brass.  So.......

Sorry Mark forgot to look, I think a nice clear solid tube running between 2 stainless banjo bolts would be a lot better, not sure what to use why not drill a series of holes up the frame and put glass grub screws in ?....that way you can see the oil level and won't have any nasty tubes on the outside !!!
