What part of the engine is sitting too high? The opposite end from the timing belt by any chance?

hello mate the engine is sitting straight instead of a slight angle as they do and there is no space between the back of the bulk head and the engine it seems to be a problem with the cambelt side mount

Do you mean the throttle body is fouling the bulkhead?
Can you take pictures of the mounts and load them onto Photobucket or a similar hosting website, you can then post them on here for us to have a look at.
Are all the mounts on and torqued BTW?
