I need to rotate this 45 degree AN fitting but it is a "little" snug! See picture. Needs to face to the rear. Before I crank it into two pieces, I thought I would ask and see if perhaps the Allen Screw just above the fitting (red arrow) might be locking it in place. I am thinking this is one of the usual carb fittings with an O-Ring that is locked down with the large nut (banjo fitting?) and the 45 degree AN fitting is just clocked 180 degrees from where I need it but it doesn't feel like you can just rotate it an additional 180 without breaking something?

<<...>>
This looks like one of those things that is easy if you know and hard if you don't! Any help appreciated.
Also, I have primer port fittings from Wix with a small pinhole (brass) and some from the Spruce that are basically 2d AN fittings without any restriction. (Came in the primer solenoid kit) Seems like a lot of difference between the two and one would pass a lot more fuel than the other. Any reason to favor one over the other? See pix, sorry for the quality.

I would take it out completely then put it back in the position I require with locktite on it.
