Not sure if there was anything wrong with my previous plan (A) if it was not tried, but here is Plan B.
Remove the relief valve and put a water line in there instead (might even use a Y and have the relief valve and a water line). Pass the water line around outside into the bay and connect it to the hot water line somewhere.
Ok for when parked but you can't close the outside doors. Have the water line in two that join so you can undo it there and tuck the lines in each side and close the doors. Means put stops in each end . If you used the hot drain line to connect to it already has that stopper on top of the elbow if hot water will then go up the drain line and into the T and up the vertical.
Something like that, whatever works best.
