Could you do a full block and utilize the pipe insulation as a spacer to allow some air to enter/exit ?

I believe you're right, it definitely seems like it would have a poor effect on aerodynamics. I can't really speak on exactly how much of a negative impact it would make though.
However, my goal for the mod is to increase the warm-up time of the vehicle, not improve aerodynamics. The large majority of my driving is short stop & go city trips. I plan on also building an upper grille block eventually to help increase the temperature of air coming through the intake.
