Thats not a good idea...the tube can get plugged up and freeze in the winter and cause problems.

Its a better idea to keep it as short as possible. Straight down in ideal.

Ditched the bottle, ran mine straight done and tied it off to the sway bar.

Also its not the best idea to use heater hose. Its meant for water/antifreeze and the oil fumes/vapor causes the hose to get spongy inside. You better off using Poly or some kind of soft plastic tubing. 3/4" iirc.
