Default oil return picture - angled okay?

hello-

I decided to get a v band discharge and it moved my DP a little, blocking the bung welded onto the oil pan. <FONT COLOR="red">Also - is it safe to only use two out of the four bolts for the front torque stiffener?</FONT>

how does this look? apologies for crappy pics.. beer + latenight = crap.

my oil return is on somewhat of the same angle urs is, and its been holding up pretty good so far. its still heading in the down direction so it should be good. oh and beer and working on ur car is sweet, i love those late nights! haha

it looks like it goes pretty flat at that one point. i'd try to angle it a little more.

Its certainly not optimal.. I'm pretty sure it will be fine, but everyone in the FI forum including me will still tell you to fix it.

yeh it does go kinda flat

I dont have much room to work with, the DP blocks almost everything but the end towards the driver side. It certainly cannot snake behind the DP, it gets pinched by the DP if I try and do that

I'll get a clearer picture tomorrow thanks for the replies
