You dont want hot air on your filter as it voids the point of having one, cold condensed air is the key.
So drilling a sealed air box is going to have same effect. Letting hot engine bay into the intake system, the airbox is selaed for a reason to keep the air cool and condensed. Why you would drill holes in it baffles me

If you did it properly (not drilling on the side of the engine) it will only suck in cold air, fitting a decent cold air feed also helps a lot

but it wont be sealed, and the air will be hot, even with a cold air feed it needs to be sealed and have some kind of heat retardent materiel (foil/CF) to keep the heat off!
