How to bolt the oil dipstick with Hooker 2055's

Just got done installing a set of Hooker 2055's, on a 92z L98. We ran into a problem, when we tried to line up the bracket on the dipstick to the bolt hole on the header flange. We also had a problem figuring out which bolt to use for that hole. The stock bolt that the dipstick bolts to is to long to use. Its impossible to get that bolt in the hole, because the end of the bolt hits the header tubing. So we used a regular bolt from summit, and the dipstick is just pressed in(not bolted to the header flange). So how exactly is the dipstick suppose to be bolted, and which bolt do you use?
