Just squash the leads with the pipe until you get a 90deg cap. Mine was like this for years, not ideal but works

I moved my rad over as far as it would go, top of my head about 3 inches.

I also had to move my rad over, and cut the rad top hose and bridge with some Hoover pipe:agree:

I have a few in my albums, can't link them though as I'm on my phone, in the picture from above you can see how far the rad can be moved over and the space inbetween the rad and alternator.
