After reading your post I went out and lowered the filter to about 1/2 way down the the elongated hole. I notice the tube does get hot when run.

The tube does feel very warm to the touch when the car is warmed up and running, this is one on the reasons why I insulated mine. I used a automotive insulation wrap that I found on EBAY. Now the tube stays much cooler. Check out this engine picture, you can see part of my insulation.
