Default Need Suggestions/Brake line related

Ok i have a d16z6 with a skunk 2 intake manfiold with str 68mm throttle body.

i have that known problem of the manifold hitting the brake prop valve. i put some poly motor mount inserts in the front and have one for the rear (not installed yet) and i have a lower profile bolt on the IAC to help.

all was well until i threw a CEL for TPS sensor...

aparently the IAC is no longer hitting the prop valve but the TPS is hitting a brake line coming from it.

i dont want to bend the brake line because thats only asking for trouble.

anyone have any suggestions for keeping it from hitting it? or a way to safely move that brake line, or the whole brake prop valve if needed?

thanks for any help, if any can be had

If it's a known problem, there are bound to be known solutions.

there is a known solution to the bolt on the iac hitting, which ive already fixed.

however, i havent found an issue of the tps sensor hitting the brake lines yet.

someone did pm me and told me to just bend a little of the line, which i did, and i added a shim/washer to the prop mounting bracket (bottom one) and it moved everything back.

seems to be working ok for now.
