Thanks Everyone!

Yes the leakage appears normal- you may want to re-route the hose to be just above the engine elevation to let the oil vapor return back into the valve cover instead of dripping on the ground or engine.
As for cooling- on the front end of the CVT cover is a rubber vent outlet, change this out for a scotchbrite pad. If it still get's too hot you can replace the HOWHIT plastic cover with some hardware cloth or screen to really let it breath.
