oil filter tube too short for thermostatic plate

so i bought a morroso thermostatic plate for the z and the plate is about a 1.5" thick. this makes putting the oil filter back on impossible. so i need to lengthen this some how. a 8an fitting has the same threads so i tried going to the HD to see if i could make a coupler. no go. i also thought of using a female to female 8an coupler and then a male to male fitting to attach the filter on but looking at the inside diameter of the an fittings, it is smaller than the original tube and i am afraid of oil issues.

 

how hard is it to get the old one out and put in a new longer one?

 

any thoughts or suggestions?
