A very common sort of mod for engine swaps that don't quite fit. Used to be
you could even buy the 'bulge' sections molded from fiberglass, maybe you
still can ?
Anyway, typical installation was to cut a hole in the original hood the size
& shape of the bulge, then insert the new section from below and pop-rivet
it into place. These days I suppose body adhesive would work better.
