Do you think it's a good idea to place the light on the fork mount given the clearance on the head tube?
I'd like to keep my cockpit as clean as possible plus the tent gets a bit in the way

Something like this with a battery light would probably work well enough. I’m planning to do this in case I need to mount something on my handlebars that takes up a lot of room.
Wizard Works Umbra mount. Not cheap but designed for this exact situation
Be wary with carbon forks. I mounted a light there and the bounce from my handlebar bag cracked the boss from the carbon, which made the fork a deathtrap
I use the one by cateye. You may need their light, but they make very good ones. I have four.

Most dynamo light mount on the fork crown, you can do the same with a battery light.
Yes, I like this internal battery one.

But I usually carry the one that takes double A batteries as a back up.
