Looking for the lowest profile 90 degree fitting for a tight spot

Hello! I am currently working on a custom hard lined water loop with EKWB quantum reflection 2 for the Lian li 011D evo. (Inverted) I am struggling to find a fitting that is small enough to fit in between my distro plate and bottom fan. With my measurements I have roughly 3/4”(19mm) of space to get a 90 into. My EKWB rotary fittings won’t fit and I’m having trouble finding anything with less than a 20mm installed height. I’m hoping there is a rotary option out there because none rotary 90 fitting would looks horrible if it doesn’t happen to sit perfectly vertically when fully installed. I’m open to any suggestions from the water cooling veterans! Here is a picture to hopefully give a better idea of my situation.

(P.S. 14mm hardline tubing)

The latest ekwn rotary 90 would be a close fit. Being 20.75mm. Id do that before buying a non roatary 90 and hoping it matches the angle needed once installed.

@Dasbobos - concur with @Mick Naughty  I have a few of the new low profile 90° (EK-Quantum Torque Micro Rotary 90°) installed in my rigs (ordered directly from EK as nobody in Australia stocks them currently) and they work very well in tight places. The added bonus of tightening them via Allen Key makes working in a cramped area easier on the fingers 🩹
