Question Temp Sensor Placement

OK guys im back on here again with another boneheaded question i hope youll be able to shed some light on for me. I have a 71 C10 that i installed a 350 in with an Edelbrock EPS manifold. I assumed that the temperature sensor for the engine temp gauge mounted right on the front next to the waterneck but when installed there the plug would end up rubbing on the radiator hose which makes me sketchy...anyone else had this problem?? Can i mount the sensor somewhere else its the facotry sensor for the factory gauge..... any ideas???
