Well, I did not pay enough attention as I was taking this engine apart. I cleaned, blasted and painted the intake tubes and the "intake distributor" (please correct me if I have mis-named). Anyway, I am a good 1/4" off center on the #3 cylinder intake tube, left tube. This can't be good or right, can it? I can get the short rubber hose on,
this kind of offset will leak right?  the 1/2 side lines up nicely  |

Here's a couple of pics of my 1.8L engine showing the runners. The plenum on yours looks to be mounted like mine.
