The only B&W installation kit that does not require frame drilling is # BWGNRK1313-5W which is also a gooseneck hitch and only fits the Companion hitch # BWRVK3500-5W.
But if the Patriot 5th wheel hitch you are using is for industry standard rails (ISR), # BWRVK3200, then you can use a different manufacturer installation kit that doesn't require drilling and the hitch will still fit. I recommend Curt installation kit # C16420-204. I have linked a video installation for you.
