If the installation involves running hoses to the remote location, I'd see
that
as an unnecesary extra leak risk.

I agree, but in our case the convenience out-weighed the risk.

The previous owner admitted that he only changed his oil every 50 or more
hours, simply because of the incredible mess and hassle. We change ours
every 25 or so, for the good of the engine and because it's really easy.

BTW: The hoses Air Wolf supplied are extremely high quality stainless-steel
braided lines. They appear pretty bullet-proof.
