I think is this situation virtual box is an overkill (I use it often, 
but for other purposes)

if virtual box can route to the vpn without you host being also on 
this vpn, this mean you can do it yourself also...

this mean you probably have to setup a second interface on top of the 
first, for example eth0:1 and eth0 and route eth0:1 to your vpn.
