I have an HE tunnel too and, although I can't find it in a hurry, I'm sure that somewhere on an HE page there was info that you could not pass any traffic to a /64 endpoint except replies to packets sent from it and the routed traffic to your /48. So I can't ping you and you can't ping me. I don't have a /48 yet because the main reason to get the tunnel was to check reachability of local v6 servers without using a local tunnel that already "knows" the route to use. maybe you can find the info at HE. I'll look again later and pass on anything I find, maybe it's in a forum. Best, *** NOTE *** Please DO NOT CC me. I <am> subscribed to the list.
