Must you have a factory heat shield or can it be made and put on the wall to achieve the clearance that you want.

Yep. You are correct. Missed that one.
Do you already have the Oslo? If not, a front loader might be better for this install.
 
I do. Found it on Craig’s list and it was incredible shape. It’s a cabin so I’m not too concerned about not getting to use the side door.
