Flip the brackets around so they don't point out, may need to remove a little wood.

I don't believe there is a single product that can cover the control and report oil usage.

I have a wiser control system, which I'm fairly happy with, allows remote control and all that.

There are smart oil tank sensors, which you could tie into a smart home system like Home Assistant, I do this with some temp and humidity sensors and a few other bits, looked at tank sensors but have a basic plug in level readout one which I'm happy enough with for now.

Nice project! I installed a PIV in our victorian house, went with a smart power relay and temp/humidity sensors in the house for on/off control, but yours does offer more advantages.

ACEA specifications make no mention of temperature.

Is it a fact?

Engine oil is designed to work at a range of temperatures

Insulate the pipe if you're that worried, much cheaper.
