Is this exhaust to downpipe connection oem or custom?

I had the full m5 comp exhaust installed on my m550 about a month ago and looking underneath the downpipe to exhaust connection is a different color pipe than exhaust/looks newer. Is this 45degree bent piece oem or made by shop? I'd call the shop but after a month, i'm sure they won't remember and i'm not going in just to answer this question.

should this pipe be bent more or just not clamped on as straight as it could be?

Yes pipe should be bent more. Down pipes on S63 engine are different. That's why when we take if you remember I asked if they had to cut anything in order for this to fit. This is comp exhaust vs our stock exhaust. So modification is a must otherwise it won't fit. I was going to do the same but after doing the research it's better just to buy what fits the right way.... just my opinion.

I was wondering if someone could take a picture of their stock exhaust piping underneath the car at the front for reference
