Default Oil catch can

I tried to get an answer about this in the general discussion area. I purchased an oil catch can from Rev Xtreme. Does anyone have experience with this brand in a corvette? It seems as though the petcock and tube that are used to drain it during oil changes makes it almost impossible to mount anywhere but the front of engine on the passenger side. I also realized that due to the size of the can, it doesn't even fit well in that area. They have 2 methods of mount. One is at the cylinder head area and the other is on the hood latch area. I originally chose the hood latch area, however the bracket they supply for that will not allow for the install there as the can is too large to fit in that area even with the supplied bracket. And to drain it from that area would be impossible as there is no way to even route the tube.

Does anyone have pictures of this brand catch can installed on their C6 vette or even an easier way to mount it? I have a A6 trans.
