Default need help!!!!! canton oil pan problem

i have a canton oil pan and we just tried to put it on yesterday and it wont fit properly. its a 6.0 iron block and the lady at canton said it wouldn't be a problem on this block. i am using a pickup tube from a 98 camaro z28 and the also the windage tray from it. canton's website recommends a gm# 12558251 fbody pickup and a oem windage tray # 12558253 which i assumed was the pickup tube and windage tray i have. the pickup tube hits in 2 spots which are right about main cap #1 where it turns off the oil pump it hits the pan and the actual pickup with the screen hits the bottom of the pan. the screen isnt a problem to fix but i don't want to bend or dent the actual tube at all to make it work. do i even have the right pickup tube?

any help would really be appreciated.

thanks in advance,

David
