There is another choice to solve this problem.
Go to a good parts house that carries a supply of brass fittings or a good hardware store with same and check a 45 degree angle fitting that would attach to or screw into the block. The 45 degree angle will allow you to slightly bend the feed tube in toward the block and it will clear the sidecover. I did it with one of my Offenhauser sidecovers and it worked perfectly.
