Default New top mount

Hi guys was wondering if anyone could help I'm trying to fit a version 5/6 top mount to my UK Classic the mount lines up fine and fits perfectly the only trouble I'm having is fitting the mount in with the baileys dump valve attached to the front of it as the old mount had the old style dump valve setup is there an easy solution to this?

You can buy dump valve adapter kits if you had the long pipe on the front of your old top mount

Or you can buy a dump valve that bolts straight on to the v5/6 top mount

Is the dump valve hitting the inlet manifold when trying to fit the top mount ?
