I'm changing the flange on my 16t to an angled flange. my old actuator is slack to going to replace it Am I correct in thinking I now need a actuator with a bent rod? and should I buy volvo or a aftermarket one?

I've always used a straight rod

I replaced mine last week and needed one with a bent rod.

I struggle to see why it needs a bent rod tbh, it's not close enough to the compressor housing to foul it at all.
