Here's a pic of the current set up, FWIW
I rerouted the hot side a little by cutting the U pipe, adding in a 7.5" straight pipe, and cut 4" off the L pipe. I didn't have time to spray the straight pipe, so it's silver and everything else is black.
The orange thing over the unpainted pipe (below the filter) is a hose insulator that I found laying around. I cut a small section of it and clamped it to the hot pipe that's directly under the airfilter.
Yes, I know the breather isn't hooked up properly. This is temporary only.

When I was at the dyno, I stuck my hand around the filter and felt around during both power runs and steady state. I was amazed at how much cooler the air just behind the headlamp bucket is than the air next to the motor where my filter is.
