I guess you only trim the flange.
I made the mistake as you stated, and cut exactly 8"
from the centerline and ended up with a nice "inspection window"
at the bottom of the Lakewood. So I drilled and tapped (4) 10-32 holes, added a curved stainless steel cover and stainless steel screws. Works just fine.

Watch that 8" dimension.
