Header problem

I dont know if any one has had this problem after putting headers on but i want to know if any one has put on the Headman 68481 and not been able to mount the dipstick tube back right if any one has any solutions it would be appreciated because im ready just to tack weld it to the side of the header

The header bolts much closer to the engine than the exhaust manifolds did - And the dipstick may not mount back where it did. I just zip-tied my tube to my wiring loom for the plug wires to keep it in place.

I just bent the little "bracket" piece and it justs rests on the header for now...i haven't driven it yet however, lol, I'll have to see if the dipstick stays in place and hopefully it won't stain/mark the header when the engine is hot.
