Default Should T56 QD hard line be loose?

Like the title says, should the QD hard line be loose where it's pinned to the slave/TOB? I assembled my trans and clutch and bolted it to the engine. I didn't notice if the line wiggled a little before I mated the trans to engine, but now that it is I see it will move a little bit. I really don't want to have to pull everything back apart, but I will if necessary. The slave/TOB is a standard GM replacement setup (non-aftermarket).

It's just pinned with an o-ring seal, so it may not be totally solid.
But obviously it shouldnt be very loose either.

Yes it can wiggle and still be ok. The retaining clip inside is plastic.

Thanks for the feedback. It wiggles slightly, just didn't notice it before I mated the engine and trans and didn't want to have to take it apart unless necessary.
