well once i took the rocker cover of and the top part of the inlet manifold the bonnet shut with a little room.

does anybody see a problem with cutting the rocker cover right down and leaving just enough room for the rockers as its clamped down with 2 nuts. there is somthing under the rocker but it has some mesh stuff aswell. does anybody know what its 4? is it important?

You should be able to get away with flattening the rocker cover. The mesh stuff on the underside of the r/c is just for PCV stuff... so bin it!

Hopefully, this will help you with your explanation.
The spring is not retained by a bolt as you can clearly see in this illustration.

He was suggesting cutting the factory spring so that the crossmember could be modified to sit the motor lower. Then somehow bolting what was left of the spring on either side.

I'd say it'd be easier to ditch the spring and build some coilovers if you wanted to modify the crossmember.
