http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/15.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net LOS from a vehicle:
"When firing a vehicle's weapons, point them against
the target and then trace the line of sight from each
weapons' mounting and along its barrel, to see if the
shot is blocked by terrain or models."

Page 3 states that measurement is made from the hull of a vehicle:
"A model is considered to occupy the area of its base, so
when measuring distances between two models, use
the closest point of their bases as your reference points.
For models supplied without a base (like some large
vehicles) use the model's hull or body instead."

For instance, an Immolator or a Land Raider Redeemer armed with template weapons would touch the small end of the template to the hull, and not the weapon itself?
If this is true, then those weapons just got a ton more utility added to them.

Page 39 follows the same train of thought as does page 3 concerning measuring distances:
"Instead of rolling to hit, simply place the template so
that its narrow end is touching the base of the model
firing it and the rest of the template covers as many
models as possible in the target unit without touching
any friendly models."

Because of this, I am inclined to believe that vehicles do in fact measure from the hull and not the weapon.

Am I correct when I read this to mean that you check LOS from the weapon, but resolve shooting distance by measuring from the hull?
I am trying to find something or someone that can contradict this, so I know if I am on the right track or just missing something else in the rules.
So far, all roads are basically pointing to "Resolve line of sight from the weapon, measure from the hull".
