Default 65 Custom Vent Tube Help Needed

My '65 / 365 has a small air cleaner (for hood clearance) that can't accept a vent tube connection. Does anyone have a custom vent tube connection that is functional and looks clean. Right now I just have a grommet and hose running out of the vent tube area. Any ideas or photos would be appreciated. Thanks Larry

This was my first PCV setup with the Dual Quads. Small K&N filter behind shielding and brake booster.

Larry why are you having hood clearance problems? Did you install a different intake or do you have a different air cleaner?

Dave, I am running a different carb that needs a spacer, thus it sits too high. I just need to fashion some other type of vent tube.
