   I see, since i don't find basically any oil on the engine bay, should i leave as it is?
   Also, i don't really like the idea of reusing the oil fumes to detonation.... seems wrong, although it would be low quantity, judging from the cleanness so far...
   Still makes me wander if i should get the tube to the airbox, or maybe just put a mini filter for it

   Mini filter or catch can. I had mine lying off for a few days and no oil came out of it either.
   
   Either way, it's not worth losing sleep over!
