Possible accusump oil line location - the unused oil port plug on top of the engine

Possible accusump oil line location - the unused oil port plug on top of the engine. Does that sound workable or does it have flaws such as:
  • The outlet is too small or large to support the desired flow.
  • The outlet is in a place where if the oil pressure dropped and the accusump had to add some oil "bad" things would happen.
  • The routing of the oil line down to where the accusump would be wouldn't work (the tunnel would be one place to mount)
  • Other???

Otherwise it seems like it could be a good place to put the oil line for the accusump, and avoid having to lose some clearance down with the oil filter hanging down low due to the sandwich plate. (and save a few bucks on the sandwich plate too )

The oil port I am talking about is the one used for the DOF feed go to page 3 or 4 from the end and also some folks have mounted an oil pressure or oil temp gauge in this location:

Oil temp sensor

Does that sound workable?

Thanks

Steve
