I installed a longer hose and vented it down below the bell housing. So long as the engine is in good condition, you should experience no dripping or make a mess as you say.

Being vented to the atmosphere below the bell housing, I cannot see how there would be even a remote potential for explosion as has been suggested.

If you do indeed have a bit of a blowby problem, then the suggestion to first of all vent it through a condensing chamber to capture any oil makes perfect sense.

As far as the environment goes, I don't suppose it amounts to a hill of beans whether it is vented out the crankcase or first burnt in the combustion chamber then exhausted out the tail pipe. It's still pollution; live with it.
