I finally printed and mounted the box. OrangePI plus 2 board fit quite properly.
The screw hole are not so in right position so I need to be more accurate (I'm talking of about 0,3-0,5mm so not so bad ;-) ).
I used:
n.4 M3x25mm to mount the top cover
n.4 wood screw 3.5x20mm (like in the picture with the screw on top of the fan). May be also a 3x20mm work fine.
Now I'm thinking on how to power the fan (which is 12V) because My power unit is 5V (the one caming with Orange PI). May be I'll do it with a 12V power unit and fork a 5V using a 7805 or a DC-DC converter.
Next step is to check all the free part in the bottom cover. Ther is a micro USB port which is hidden so I need to redesign this part to open it and fill some other part to fit much more all ports.

This is my versione for a Orange PI Plus 2 cover. On the web I found various box for Orange Pi, Pi 2, Plus, or PC but no one for Plus 2.
I found a cover on thingiverse by xlogan and redesigned it to cover completely the board.
I put on top a 60x60 fan so the H3winner chip can work really fast with no temperature problems.
I also put 4xM3 nut in the bottom so I can use M3x25mm screw to lock the box.
Next upgrade is to add a part for the camera (OPi camera has a short cable so I think is better put it integrated in the box. I'll do it asap).
I'll print it to check if all work fine
