FG Marder-Engine Mount

[umeshg]

I am in the process of installing a new 27cc OBR engine on my FG Marder and have encountered an issue. It appears that the base of the new engine, shown on the right, is a different size compared to my previous one on the left, resulting in a compatibility problem with the engine mount.
I am also sending pictures of the top part of the engine -blue is the old one on the left with the sticker OBR
Could you please confirm if there are different sizes of engine mounts available. Any suggestions or guidance you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks
