He's a dumbass.

Whats wrong with it? other than looking really goofy in the rear of the car like that, I'm sure he has a pump of some sort that pumps the oil back into the valve cover. Odd setup, never seen one on a honda like that.

I htink that I would have had a separate resivor (sp) and pump in the back of the car. you could keep it real cool and not have to worry about taking it back to the engine. That would be real simple. But alot of money on mandrel bends back to the intake. It might cost let but you would be sorry about the gains.
