Ventilation question w/pics

Hey guys, i'm looking for a place to vent in the basement. In the hot water tank/furnace room there what seems to be a good place to do so. The pics are pretty straight forward, id like to tie into the vent from the top of the hot water tank, it shoots straight up to the top of the house. There is even a place that is plugged where i can remove the plug and plum into. Is this safe? I don't want any vented air from the room getting back into the house.

Thanks

yes.. you should be fine

i should also add that i have the option of venting into a drain in the floor...would it be better?

I wouldn't vent through the floor drain. Most run directly to the sewer system in front of your house. Very easy to trace odour, or heat back to you,

Just my 2 cents.
