Mimicking a Tunnel-Shaped Section Box?

Regular Section Boxes in Revit are cuboids, which is great except when trying to see a snaking run of elements as they go through a complicated building. I am looking for ideas of ways to get a run of something (e.g., Conduit), expand its geometry a few feet in all directions, and hide everything else in the view, including elements in Revit Links.

Result would be a combination of these two effects:


Hi,

I think, we can just select the conduit, use its curve, make it bigger by using MEPover package bu increasing the dia and convert that to a bounding box (deleting it later). Then the intersecting elements can be manipulated accordingly.
However, iā€™m not sure how can we hide the specific linked elements, as that cannot be done in revit aswell, manually.
I know this is a old topic, but if you have come across the solution already, please share.
Regards,
