Looks like someone has repaired the crimp style fitting with a fuel injection clamp. And yes, it looks like is has moved. I would get a new line asap, expensive and messy troubles could be just around the corner.

that was my take on it. thx for responding/confirming.
this was installed by a highly rated independent Porsche repair shop in Vancouver. they billed it out as an oem Porsche oil line. not impressed. |

Please point the shop to this thread and take the "oil line" back to them. That's total BS.
