Strugging to get on upper heat shield. RH exhaust manifold

Changing RH exhaust manifold and gasket
Got it all apart, now reassembling. Have got on the manifold, and lower heat shield. I cannot get the upper heat shield into position; am obstructed by a water pipe, aircon pipes, and the cam cover. It came off easily enough. Is there a trick?

Relax chaps, I've finally got it in, and put in one screw - two to go, including the one at the back. This is a job and a half.

I think I didn't bother putting one back on when I did mine years ago, never caused an issue
