I made a 3/8-inch thick phenolic block, machined the hole for the probe base at the calculated angle, also another hole for the finger strainer, then bonded the block into a prepared recess in the inside of the BL50 rib. Put 3 BID over the block on the inside of the rib, plus another 3 BID on the outside for additional strength. Bonded the aluminum base into the hole with hysol, with the probe in place during cure to insure correct orientation, then put additional BID around the base where it protruded from the inside of the rib. Have photos of the installation if you are interested.
