So, to vent the axle, I drilled a small hole (1/16") in the bolt that holds the hydraulic brake system distribution block to the axle, which accomplished the same thing. I am glad I ran into this thread, because I hadn't thought about venting my Tudor's axle. Now, I plan to drill a similar hole in one of my Tudor's top banjo bolts. I think there's no need for a tube, unless one plans to drive through deep water. Thanks for the idea.

Like others experiences I've seen, I had lube pumping out into the tube due to the ring gear action on the top left bolt. Switched to the right top and routed the tube up to the right as stated to minimize migration..
