Info needed: Chevrolet 235 c.i. conversion for CMP

The question on the front mount is (like so many things) a little more complex than it may seem at first glance. Yes, Hanno's engine has the plate with the lower edge flange for mounting the CMP style rubber mount. I can't see if it is punched with the two square holes for the carriage bolts that hold the rubber mount in place. As long as the flange is there, it would be possible to drill and file holes for the bolts and have a functionally identical mount to the CMP mount.
For the style cylinder head shown, the CMP oil filter mount isn't a direct bolt-on. It is possible to make head bolts with an extended hex and threads pointing up to engage the filter mount - weld two bolts head to head (and since my welding was messy but strong, clean up the surplus).
Concerning timing gear lubrication nozzles, there are several styles and I'm quite sure (should confirm...) that there were two different size holes made in the nozzles to allow different oil flows.
For more information on the water pump relocation (using either a CMP pump or one that looks close to the same) to raise the axis of the water pump and fan to be better centered on the radiator, take a look on the Stovebolt forum - it comes up regularly:
