Making an A-series engine stand adaptor fitting

Hi,
I'm looking to side mount my 1098 block to my engine stand as per how many others choose to do it during a rebuild of an A-series (see pic). My stand tube is around 60mm but I can't find that diameter steel tube and would like a snug-not sloppy fit. RHS would do if it occupies the space nicely. Any experiences/help?

Problem solved - made an adapter plate that can be attached to the standard engine stand using the adjustable bolt fixtures
