Hello
Are there any negatives to fitting EOF ?
I have the housing and the bracket, what fittings do I need? (pictures would be handy)
Braided hoses or copper pipe?
Any help appreciated.

Steel lines would be OK Copper work hardens and will eventually fail ... or cheaper than braided hose would be use SAE 100 high pressure hose.......FC427.......
To answer the original question, no there aren't really any negatives, but precious few positives either.
It's a bypass system, which means you might get 5% of your oil through it. There are a few more fittings to leak and/or fail, and a not-easy-to-come-by filter. Sounds great when you put it that way.
A few blokes have modified them to produce full-flow filtration. That might be useful, but as a general rule in stock form they're hardly worth the bother. IMHO. YMMV.

Errm, that's an oil-bath
air filter. The OP was asking about
oil-filters:

Thanks for the comments , don't think I'll bother.
Just ensure I change the oil a little more regularly.
