Default Water neck

Can someone do me a favor and take a picture of the water neck on a GS300 for me. The one I'm talking about is right above the water pump that connects to the cylinder head. For some apparent reason, after reinstalling it, the neck will not slide onto the opening of the waterpump at all.

Come on people. Can someone please go out to their car and snap a picture where the water neck connects to the waterpump for me. It's not like something difficult here.

Thanks for the picture. But I can barely see it since it's so small. Would you have a shot of it from the front facing the rear of the car because I need to know if there is indeed a gap or not.

OK, I just went outside in the pouring rain to take these pics. The space I'm talking about is pointed by the red arrow.

The bottom is just slip fit with an o-ring. The 2 bolts up top keep tension on the pipe so it doesn't leak. The gap there is fine.
