you know, never noticed that, ill look and check that out tomorrow... Already cocked it right side up and put a hose "clamp" at the corner of the valve cover to hold the oil line down...

why not just clock the turbo?

loosen the bolts and spin, I can see how doing that would change anything as far as pipe fitment

+1, you don't need it to be perfectly up and down, just closer, i would say

I think you'll be fine. I ran my turbo close to that angle and had no problems with it.
