Hello,

I now you said you didn't want the pump. But I wonder why? A RULE 
brand pump for bilge duty in boats is less than 12 bucks, designed 
for occasional continuous use, designed for oil, gas, sludge, etc. 
and is cheap and easy to replace when/if necessary. Parts washer 
pumps from HF are another possibility. 

Container, pump, short length of tubing full of holes, problem 
solved, under 20 bucks, and likely under 4 hours. Simple, cheap, 
reliable, repairable. Works for me.

Why make it harder?
