Is there any reason I can't clamp the motor in a vice and pop in two holes

I have done it in-situ, but there really isn't all that much metal in there.

I think pulling the back cover off (leaving the rotor in place) and
choosing your mounting point carefully would probably be best.

Or, as Gene says, use the existing holes, very short screws, and an
adaptor plate.

The advantage there is that on your test assembly, you'll likely find something that needs changed to make it fit really well, and the OpenSCAD edit of one or two vars, thru cura and feeding the gcode from cura to the printer for a corrected copy is a 5 minute job. During which time you can take a nap or do other productive work. At my age, the nap often wins. ;o)> Keeps me out of the bars too dontcha know.

Tace care and stay well all.

Cheers, Gene Heskett.
