Massey Ferguson 1100 oil filter relocation

Just got a Massey 1100 and the tachometer cable was missing. For some reason the oil filter is located on the left side of the engine right next to where i believe the tach drive connection should be on the timing gear cover. Is there a way to turn the filter upside down to expose where the tach drive should be and I could reconnect a cable? Or was there another place that I missed where the tach cable had been connected? Thanks.
 
Is there room for something like this? Assuming they are the same thread...

The filter is almost touching where the tach drive would be. That is why maybe finding a filter head that faces downward would place the filter upside-down allowing room to connect a tach cable. (see picture of my tractor in the photo section under -1968 Massey Ferguson 1100 Diesel- to get a better idea of the problem.
