Sorry Kyle
Turns out I have the Rohloff monkeybone, also have the OEM 2 plate. Would that not work for you?
Cheers Adam.

Hi Adam, Ah that's a shame but thanks for looking for me.
I currently got me OEM2 axle plate anchored to a bolt through the lower locating hole on the ISO caliper mount of my frame. I went to attach the lightweight rear rack I got for it on weekend and the pannier mount hole on my frame is right in line with axle plate. Overthreading the bolt protrudes and contacts the axle plate. Either I need the exact size bolt (cut it down) or a Speed Bone to rotate the axle plate anchoring position such any size bolt is no longer an issue for collision. The monkeybone would had been an ideal solution otherwise, it looks very neat but looking at its contact point is almost the same as my current setup. I'll probably try the cheapest solution to problem first with bolt size but if any speed bones come up then of course I'll buy to try.
Thanks again,
Kyle
