It is my understanding that the 0-200 uses different mounting bushings ( Lords ? ) which position the engine approx 1/2" forward of the original position. To accomodate this change most have moved the nose and engine cowls forward also, but maybe in this case the installation was done by modifying the RH air intake, but that is just a guess.
