Does your scope already have the holes to accept the radius block? If so, I’d use it, so you don’t have to drill new holes into the OTA.
Unless the Vixen dovetail bar has a pair of tapped holes that fit the finder mounting shoe I’d take it off the radius block. The 25mm spaced holes on the radius block look like they might suit the finder shoe, but they don’t appear to be tapped. If you have enough clearance underneath the radius block you could use short bolts and nuts to attach the finder shoe to the radius block. Otherwise I’d drill and tap a pair of holes into the radius block to suit the finder shoe.
If the OTA doesn’t have holes for the radius block I would drill and tap two holes for the finder shoe to attach directly, rather than four holes for the radius block.
