MT75 is easy to mod for moving the gear lever but not too many people use it, I've got info if need be but suspect you are looking at type 9.

Honestly I REALLY did try to avoid this

No, so long as you make a big enough hole in the bottom of the sump for the oil strainer to poke out.

I can resist everything but temptation.
