Not to beat a dead cow but just to confirm I understand....

I can go from dish to splitter, then in the red port of the splitter plug in his existing setup with the PI and from another port in the splitter go straight to my receiver.

Correct?

You guys are amazingly awesome! I'll report back to let others know how this works out.

By Jove, I think you've got it!

Your neighbor is hooked up like the mid-page left-side receiver. Note he has a receiver to the red terminal with the PI in between. You connect to any of the other terminals. No additional PI's required. Mot sure but I think the unused terminals must be terminated and I don't know if the splitters are weather-proof. You Amazon splitter is the correct one. It will support eight tuners. DVR's have two and HR34's have five.

Ignore the white boxes. They are for MRV.
