I was thinking that your turkey pan sat underneath the clip, not through it.
Too bad that your pan isn't just a tad more vertical toward the back.

I've done a bit of that adjustment (sanding). Looking at the pan directly from the rear, though shows at least an inch discrepancy. I may just raise the left side a bit with a wedge or washers. I'm just afraid I'd twist things and compromise the integrity of the engine mounting.
