FWIW, A friend of mine dropped a vent line down through the opening where the gear door is. It's just zip tied to the side of the fuse, just inside the door.
I did basically the same thing (except glued, not zip-tied) on my Hunter. When the clamshell door closes, the vent line is hidden yet is still far enough away from the door to allow air to be drawn freely (don't want a flameout due to fuel starvation when you pull the gear up !). Aircraft sits on the ground with the doors open, so any drips will not go inside the aircraft.
