"One bent outlet tube, no kinks. It has an out of square trapezoidal shape that could be tweaked back to rectangular."

In my view that is a candidate for recycling. It will prolly crack if someone tries to square it off, if it isn't already.

PF condensers are not that expensive

I got the carbon seal I had been waiting on. Reassembled the FS-6 with no issues. As soon as I get my new steering box installed, I'll install my re-sealed compressor.
