UPDATE 20181027 UPDATE
20181027: Updated the diffuser duct and created several versions that are for a volcano heatblock. Also, a Zesty Nimble mount for the Orion sensor is uploaded. Finally, the Orion heatsink mount was re-designed to provide a more secure clamp for the groove mount.
20180926: Designed a PP Orion heatsink mount to eventually be used for the Zesty Nimble mount that is in progress. This mount allows for access to the hotend w/o removing the Orion sensor.
20180926: Developed a mount for the Precision Piezo Orion sensor. The heatsink mount was redesigned to remove the original design's requirements to use brass inserts, while maintaining the interchangeability (same footprint) of the original Orion heatsink mount from Precision Piezo. I also designed a fan duct for the E3D heatsink that accommodates a quiet 40 mm fan. This mount is compatible with the other parts previous developed, just download what you need for your printer.
This hotend assembly has mounts for three different mounting schemes for either a clone or genuine E3D hotend.
Typical hotend mount w/ no bed leveling options
Precision Piezo mounts (Piezo20 and Orion sensor)
Zesty Nimble (Original and Sidewinder) w/ Piezo20 sensor
There is now an X Carriage to handle 19mm, 16mm, and 15 mm bearing diameters with NO BRASS INSERTS.

Detailed Mounting Schemes
Typical hotend w/ only BLTouch or Induction sensor
Typical hotend w/ Zesty Nimble Mount

Precision Piezo Orion sensor
Several X Carriage options (19 mm, 16 mm, and 15 mm) -- updating soon w/ side set screws (see Orion images) to help with holding the IGUS bearings in place.
