>> While attaching the engine to landing gear frame any thoughts on safe
ways to support the engine while positioning etc. - I dont want to be
holding it up by bits I should not.

Use an engine hoist with strops around the exhaust manifolds. I needed
to mount the engine around six times before getting the offset correct
in both dimensions. A set of squeeze clamps to pre tension the lord
mount rubbers will make life easier when fitting the engine to the
frame.
