crf110 oil starvation help

I have a 2026 crf110
I've read in a few places that they are prone to oil starvation when doing wheelies or hill climbs because the oil pick up is too far forward in the case.
I've ordered an oil pump kit that bypasses the oem pick up and uses a plastic tube to pick oil up from further back in the case.
Currently this is the only kit available online.
Seems obvious that even intermittent oil starvation will drastically reduce engine life.

I have a few questions:

has anyone running a standard pick up noticed
premature engine wear/failure?

has anyone else used the plastic tube oil pump kit? reviews??

has anyone managed to mod the original oil pump to do the same thing? Using an aluminium tube like the beardopumps kit (out of stock at the moment).

is there another work around? like running a larger volume of oil without causing any other issues?

thoughts on bypassing the mesh screen for the oem pickup? like all of these oil pump mods do.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
It would be awesome to get some consistent evidence and advice from anyone familiar with these bikes.
