I have the same tank and it also has the "dangling hose". I was looking at it last night to figure out a better solution and thought it might be better to vent the gas cap instead. I have not had the car on the road yet and I'm sure I will need to resolve this problem soon. We made a hard vent line with a double loop in it and sealed the open end with a small K&N slip-on motorcycle filter for our VW race car and it worked fine.
