That bracket is definitely a tight fit. The last time I had my engine out, I was able to take a look at the setup. If you can wait until you drop the engine next, it would be much easier, as the bottom part you are describing is a tight fit. It kind of snakes through the emgine tins and the rear engine mount.
When Myles did his, I think he ended up cutting it flush instead of unbolting the whole thing.
But in the end, not much weight savings as it is aluminum.
Just my dumb opinion.
