Doc and Jerry. Here is the prelim design.
The tubes from the lower end of the nose gear socket up to
the upper hard points are the breakthrough feature. This
supports the nose gear socket from rotating clockwise on
a hard drop in landing and still provides plenty of room
for a large oil pan  and a radiator and oil cooler mounted
under the engine. The tubes from the upper end of the nose
gear socket provide lateral support for the Schertz beam
and prevent the nose gear socket from rotating counter
clockwise (side view) in the event of a pot hole type load.
The engine has two degrees off set to the right and a 2.85:1
gear box must be used with this off set.
Only half the mount is shown.

Any comments?

Here is with a nice wide rad and oil cooler combo.
