I put the drive bellows on my alpha one gen one on the bell housing first and it was glued properly. Then I realized it was slightly off in terms of where it says top aft. turned to one side maybe 20 degrees or so. Is that going to present any problem or try to pull off?
Also, what happens if you don't get as much glue on one side as ideal, should I pull it off and start over or tighten the clamp and move on?
Thanks for any advice on this.

thanks all, I pulled it redid and re-glued effectively and with a little help from my son the usually difficult exhaust bellows was a since, and didn't even use the tool. Now I am confident all is well down there.
