or what ever i find under the car. have not looked there yet!

Yes, but I had to do some cutting on it to make it work.

no CEL. AccessPORT FTW!

mounting it on the airpump bracket is going to take a lot of braided stainless line.

and it would not have anything between the unit and the header--remember guys with relocation kit small leaks happen not infrequent.
i would not advise placing it directly over the exhaust area.
the fenderwell or the firewall (windshield washer) area is about all the choices available--unless you want to run some really long lines.
If so you could get into actually helping cool the oil with the lines and a cooler type oil filter---good thread--more join in.
