Good news everyone, it clears everything! :D

There's about 10-12mm clearance from the clutch to the tab on the bottom of the header tank, the n/s head bleed hose needed a 2" extension (the base of the compressor is lower than the spigot on the head, so it has to go up'n'over)

I may also have to swap the oil interwarmer u-bend pipe for a hose, it may foul the belt but until the tank etc is plumbed in I don't need to worry about that just yet.
