Offset alternator bracket

I have a tri-power offenhauser manifold. I'd like to add an alternator when I update to 12v. The problem is I need an offset bracket as the oil fill tube sits in front of the front carb. Does anyone make such a bracket? Has anyone run into this problem and found a solution for it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
 
I should have mentioned that this is on a '51 Ford. I talked to Speedway this morning and they don't have anything. I'll check some other flathead suppliers.
 
The problem you are going to have with a later engine is the water outlets are going to be in the way. Couple of questions, are you sure you want an alternator? If your mind is made up on the alternator, are you sure you want a GM style? There are alternators made to fit a flathead that are in original type housings that will mount with available brackets.
