My question is just holding the pickup tube to the oil pump  the screened pickup area sits at a angle is that gonna be ok? Just looks kinda weird. Thanks

There are different versions of pumps for BBF's, and they offer 3 (I believe) different mounting angles - sounds like you might have either the wrong pickup or the wrong pump. Check with Canton directly (or online) and verify which pump/screen you should have.

I have the melling m84dhv pump

Looks like I need the M-84BHV pump. The tube has a bolt on area at a angle. Guess I got another pump for another build now

ITS NORMAL to be at a little angle

The D pump is the truck/van style normally used with the rear sump pan,the B pump is the car CJ/PI style normally used with the front sump pan,although the D pump can be used with a front sump pan with the appropriate pickup.I've heard that the D pump has some attributes that make it a superior pump but I don't know what those are,it seems to be recommended as the preferred pump.
