Dogbone mount alignment

Whats the best way to get the dogbone hole aligned with the subframe ?

With the dogbone bolted into gearbox case the hole is not close enough to get bolt in. I loosened off the upper engine mount to make sure its as far back but still not enough.

I'm wondering if the exhaust or manifold is preventing the additonal movement it needs. I'm struggling for room in garage and engine , subframe exhaust etc has only just been installed , its a standard dogmount

Yeah im thinking the manifold and exhaust may have been stopping me tilting it , i didnt have much time to mess around to be fair.
