The "correct" way to do that is by assigning a new MAC address to
domU, and ask your network admins to modify DHCP assignment.

If you're stuck with wanting that MAC on domU, then you can change the
NIC's MAC address on dom0 before putting it on the bridge. Something
like

ip link set eth0 address 00:16:3E:9d:77:76

then you can use the original MAC address for domU.
