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.

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.
