I have my car up on jackstands at the moment. I'll go under tomorrow and see exactly what I did under there. I don't remember finagling with that bottom pipe at all but I didn't do this recently.
The one I had to modify was the top one coming out of the thermostat housing. I cut it and inserted about a four or five inch piece of -24 Aeroquip hose to make it line up with the relocated pressure tank.
That I know I can show you a picture of. The engine cover is off right now also.
It may be the simplest thing to do to fix your issue too.
I am wondering though if I have a different shape pipe on that bottom trouble maker? Vendors have been know to switch suppliers or modify things here and there. Theoretically for the better but sometimes they don't even know there was a problem with the part to begin with.
I could tell you stories INCLUDING Wilkinsons parts that don't fit out of the box!
I'll post something for you tomorrow probably around mid-day here.
Thanks Doug its good to know i'm not alone,
