I think you could use the OEM dual piece int he front with a 3/8 to 3/8 barb, then run the hose to the can.. use the same type 3/8 to 3/8 bard at the F tube

again run hose to Catch can..
My main concern is ruining the dual-piece and the F-piece. Neither are available anymore, and both are pretty dang pricey now for NOS stuff. Both of mine are more or less new, having luckily replaced them before the prices got crazy.

That's mainly why I thought of cutting the existing pipe. However, of course I'd "ruin" that, and it's NLA too. I think worst case I could patch the section I cut with some rubber hose, and it would look like the coolant lines with metal and rubber sections.

Also, you didn't have a problem fitting two hoses next to each other over the two plenum nipples? They are really close together, which I assume is why they made that special rubber piece.
