the first image is a mockup to be sure everything fit in the limited space available.

the second image shows the modified water in/outlet locations.  I found an old timey radiator repair shop and the proprietor was eager to work on something out of the ordinary.  Note the detail on the water tubes.   A tip from a forum member for a detail that simulates the bump to augment a god hose seal.  It's 14 ga household copper wire soldered to the tube.
