Saw the video...interesting.n Here's my question.

Given the two holes are placed directly opposite each other, why wouldn't the IMS tube partly fill with oil for the following reason? At times when the engine is off, one hole will be submersed and the other vented. The surrounding air pressure will then pump oil into the IMS tube until the outside and inside oil reach the same height?
