Default Correct FOD Screen for P-70?

Hello, I purchased a JetCat P-70 a few weeks ago as my first turbine.

I called Jetcat shortly after and was told that the P-60 FOD screen would be the one I needed to order to fit my new P-70.
After receiving the screen today - that information was incorrect. The opening for the starter motor is fine but the fuel and propane line openings interfere with the screen pushing flush.

Which screen should I have ordered? I do not see one for the P-70 explicitly which is why I called JetCat.

either will work, the P-60 is the best screen but you have to dremel it to fit around the fittings. the P-70 screen will not fit in a bypass setup.

Novice here - so after I dremel it out, how does it actually attach to the can? I didn't really see where it would attach.

should be an o-ring that slips over the starter, slide it up tight so it pushes the screen against the front case.
