Dunno, but there probably will be.
Most companies seem to have one these days.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Ill be getting one of these as soon as i get paid!
cant i just drill through the belly pan directly below the sump, then attaching the hose doesnt require belly pan removal?

You could, but I'd suggest a locknut behind the fitting, inside the sump.
It stands a chance of being knocked off by road debris, though......

What about on the lower rear edge, at least it will not be directly in the line of fire, and a bit more protected.
