Our tongue weight is 500 and the dealership said that the Trailmanor tongue weight is 450 but they don't seem to really know alot about trail manors.
I don't understand how the dealership can prohibit you from towing your TM regardless of WDH or not. A WDH will certainly augment your tongue weight requirements.

Don't get me wrong, you are really pushing your weight limits and I would not use that vehicle, long term. That CVT transmission isn't the best for towing. That short wheel base would be a challenge without a WDH that includes a sway control (like the Anderson WDH.

Do you have an electric brake controller installed in your Infinity? That's a BIG deal. Towing that trailer with no trailer brakes is not a good idea.
