I'm not sure if i'm just tired, but that doesn't make a great deal of sense to me. Can you edit your post with a bit of punctuation, and try to explain that a bit better please?

There is both a short and a long version of the that type of inlet manifold.

You can either try and find another one that is shorter, or get handy with the grinder to make some clearance.

Heard of this before u can get a slight but of movement away from the master cylinder by adjusting the gearbox mount as it apparently slides left to right a bit when fitting

I ran the xantia mani, was very close but never had issues, the 406 inlet mani is the shorter one, but imo dosent look as good.
