Ad400 bulb repair, flash tube looks bent

I just received an Open Box Ad400 pro ii, and while testing noticed that the flash tube was decentered in the glass house. Looks like it got slightly bent over. I’ll see what the store can do, but if the only option is to return it, I’m curious if this is something that can be fixed. Looks like I could just reach in and gently bend it back (wearing gloves).

Any thoughts?

Godox mount reflectors for AD400, using the one from the ML60 led light?

Looking for hard-light, narrow beam modifiers for the ad400, and it seems the only two godox mount reflectors available are the AD-R14 and the AD-R12. The 14 looks too wide, and the long throw r12 is too large and still wider, I'd rather go with a Bowens mount cheetah 45 or something at that rate.

I came across these godox mount reflectors in a Markus pix video, but I can't find any info on if they can be bought separately, or if they would work with the ad400 or ad300. Has anyone tried either of them with a strobe?

Does anyone else have a solution for a lightweight modifier that would give a 25 degree beam or tighter? Maybe a small Fresnel?
