Can anyone with a Powered By Max oil relocation kit confirm that they installed the oil relocation on their SR20DET oil filter housing with 0 problems ?

I'm setting up the oil relocation kit on my s13 Blacktop SR20DET, upon setting it up I ran into a problem where the oil relocation plate that screws on to the engine screws on fine but has a very very tiny gap between the plate and oil housing because it hits 3 out of 4 of the allen screws that bolt down the Oil Filter Housing.

I'm working with PBM trying to figure out what the deal is and they believe the allen screws are longer than stock size... I have however not changed them out so I'm almost positive these are stock. I even referenced the housing with stock screw depth and they look the same.

I was thinking about resorting to grinding the allen screws, however going to wait.

Here's some images for reference:
