For what it's worth, for years auto manufacturers had the intake snorkels under the hood. Of course, they were trying to vaporize/homogenize the air/fuel mixture so a little warm air didn't hurt anything. Since the ECM compensated for inlet temp, I don't see any reason why you couldn't suck air right from under the hood. Now whether you'd want to or not is another matter.
