So, if you are agreeing with me, then feedhorn 'aiming' within a monoblock is not very important, but feedhorn distance is. Glad that is solved.
I still think that it would be better or the feedhorns to be at an angle to each to be properly pointing towards the centre of the dish. But strong signals will mask this.

But if you look here, under 'specifications', you see that the tubes between feedhorns and 'body' of the monoblock are perfectly parallel: Inverto - IDLB-SINM62-MNOO3-8PP -
In the feedhorn themselves I never noticed an angle, but I never watched with much attention I must say. So I assume they are also straight-angled and parallel.
Yes, they certainly look parallel. I suspect manufacturing convenience rather than design excellence.
