Do not force an outlet into alignment. The disposer, discharge fittings and drainage layout need to meet their model-specific fitting requirements without placing avoidable strain on joints.
What the observation tells you
A pipe that appears slightly out of line may be part of a mounting or installation problem. Pulling it can move the appliance or disturb a seal, while adding more sealant can hide the symptom without correcting the load. A flexible-looking connector is not permission to bend it beyond its intended use.
A useful next step
Keep leaking arrangements unused and show the engineer the existing position. Have alignment assessed rather than using the pipe to reposition the disposer.
Manuals and supporting guidance
Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
