After dealing with hose fitting leaks, I plumbed mine with Ni-Cu tubing and am happy with the results. I didn’t install any vibration loops and my reasoning was that the filter is hard mounted to the engine so there should be minimum flex in the tubing and the tubing is bent in multiple planes that should absorb any expansion and contraction issues. I did that over a year ago and so far no leaks.
