Q: 1. Is there an L-bracket compatible with the manfrotto 290 dual tripod? If not, is there a plate that can be used with this L-bracket and the manfrotto tripod? Thank you!

A: The Manfrotto 290-dual uses Manfrotto's 200PL proprietary plate and there currently isn't an L-bracket designed to work with them. You are able to attach a 200PL to the bottom of the L-bracket but not the L-component. In both cases, this defeats the purposes of the RRS L-bracket set for the Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mk II/III.
