Thanks Marty! Going to try the dealer route first - they haven't said they wouldn't repair it (haven't said they would), but clearly damaged from the factory. More concerning is that someone - on the line - installed this pipe the way it was. It obviously wasn't damaged in transport. So the thought comes to mind, what else did they do that isn't visible? Hence some of the woes discussed on the forums here....
