Hi ya Frank!

My HS4 over flows headed right down the to the ground. There are rubber 
adaptors that connect to the overflow lines, then to metal lines, then down 
past the exhaust system to the ground.  There is also a small metal mount that 
bolts them to the side of the engine.  The mount is attached to one of the oil 
pain bolts.  My engine and SUs are out of the car right now.  I can get a 
picture of the overflow lines so you can see them if you like.
