Yeah but the filter (or paper) will eventually get saturated in oil and then drip all over the back of your engine, bike frame and REAR TYR

It would have to be a lot of oil dripping on the engine before it hit the tire... When I've had oil leaks, most of the oil burns off before ever getting to the ground. I've had a valve cover gasket leak that never made it more than a few inches down the head before burning off and a clutch cover gasket leak that only ever hit the ground when I parked the bike and it cooled off...

I went for an 800km ride with an inline fuel filter as a crank case filter, and when I arrived I noticed the entire rear frame and swing arm of my bike was covered in an oily film.
