Crank case vent

I want to run my air filter/AFM up by my intake manifold but my crank case vent is in the way. I took the hose off to see if I could just put the filter on it and I saw a little oil around the fitting. If I relocate my vent and turn it sideways will it leak oil all over under my hood?
