Actually, because of the reverse intake manifold the view is distorted , but it looks like there is quite a bit less space behind the motor.
What I'm surprised about is how much space there is in FRONT of the motor, like a good foot or so and I don't even see the radiator in that photo meaning its pretty far forward.
That makes me think there is going to be much more room in front of the motor than behind it.
Look at how much room is normally behind the motor with Subaru's:
