I don't think I like the setup outside. I can see issues with snow and rain, or just somebody grabbing it while I sleep. Also, not something you can use in a parking lot or rest stop while on the road.
The permanent mount is the way I will go. It really is not that big and the diesel tank, muffler and etc.. will be outside anyhow. I am building in a standoff pedestal on the floor and will have the fuel pump mounted inside that with a sound deadening liner. That should minimize the clicking given it will essentially be outside and muted by a cover.
Going to install this week. More to come.
