No need to ever fill it higher than that. If you're concerned, add a half quart when it gets down to 4.5. I've run a C90 for years (full at 4.7 quarts) by filling it to 4.5 at each oil change and adding half a quart at 4.0. Putting a home brew oil trap on the blowby tube can be problematic, regardless of the legalities. If, for example, it freezes up, you can blow a seal and loose a lot of oil in short order. Better to get it working correctly, and if you're still dissatisfied, add an approved separator.
