Will check tonight, and take some advice on making this mod, from a safety perspective.

Are you still using the standard oil catch box under the seat? You could make another one, with 2-3 times the volume of the standard one. You can then route the breather tubes better (one at top of that box, one at bottom - not both at the same side) and it will catch more oil in it.
