Default Motor swap; carburetor not fit anymore

Hello all. So swapped engine from 90 cc to 110 cc on daughter's quad. All bolted up no issues with fit. However, I then realized that where existing carburetor sits, on the new engine is a round thing...the starter I think, and so that thing will not allow carburetor to fit in there. This is because of the intake manifold 45 degree shape I guess. See pics.

So is there a different manifold set up I can obtain to circumvent this problem? Thanks in advance.

The air filter and carburetor bowl are bumping with starter...

Yes, there are different manifolds available. Looks like the float bowl wouldn't be level with that set up anyway. Some machines have the carb and manifold turned through 180 degrees, some have "swan neck" manifolds. Problem is choosing one. Here in the UK pit bikes using those engines are popular, I stuck "pit bike manifold" in eBay's search box and got lots of hits.
