Top of pic 5. Wonder if he’ll sell separately ?!

Is that a Sprint 4 branch ? , looking at the pic that would have to fit on the off side woulden't it ( not seen one before so not sure ).

I'm not convinced either. Looks to me like it would either:
Poke up through the bonnet, through the windscreen & into the cabin or
Forward out through the front valence.
Neither seems ideal....

No it fits like its upside down on the near side.

because one triumph just isnt enough

Can't see how it could possibly fit either, the single pipe is far too long.

Could be off of a formula 3 march with a sprint engine .

I don’t even think it would mate to a Sprint head at all.

It wouldn't. Sprint manifold is held on with five bolts and the spacing of the tubes is completely different.

Looks to me like a RH bank for a Rover V8 possibly for a Stag conversion.

Definitely not Sprint.
