Default Corvette Heads-Brackets w/n fit HELP !!!!!!!

Help…This is not a specific Corvette problem but one of my other cars is a 67 Camaro. I’m in the process of installing a 88 Corvette TPI motor and converting to serpentine system. I’m using the brackets from a Camaro, 89 I think, and the Alt-PS side bolts up with out problem but on the passenger side only one mounting hole matches up on the head. Why does it work on one side and not the other? I’m assuming the Corvette heads are unlike the rest of the V8 heads. The have the three mounting holes on the end but ?

I have the same parts that are listed in the GM PPM
(#12497698 Pg-85)

Can anyone shine any light on my dilemma, do I drill the head for the 2nd mounting bolt?
