Sometimes you have to go What the Hey, and just do it (Ferris Bueller reference).
. . . although, a small +++ on the keyboard and it could be a 500. . .

Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.

Spreading the load over two mounts with the bracket seems potentially more sturdy
the weakest part of any v engine is apparently the thigh gap

Yeah but he doesn't have two hoady 500cc overly complex pistons waving around.

Granted but I would personaly rather sacrifice a few gms of weight rather than recast and re-machine a set of cases.

Low personal B.M.E.P.
This is the point where you pause and reflect on whatever frame design you have in mind - and how much frame loading you're prepared to put through the cases.
If the answer is "some" then cast in lugs - albeit with a spacer between - are your preferred option
If the design isolates the motor then the bolt on plates - with maybe urethane bushings - will suffice.
The trick is to finish up with a nicely integrated design which both looks good and functions well.
And of course has access for servicing.....
