g35 stock air duct question

I have a question about the stock airduct. I got a used g35 and when i went to change the airfilter i noticed the airduct that slides into the side of the stock g 35 airbox was bent. What i mean is the front ramp of the duct on either side have a fairly large gap between them and the body is this how they all are or are they supposed to fit flush.
I will try to post pictures when i can but it has been raining here for a few days

What's your question?

Are you asking if it's supposed to be like that?

it would be easier if you posted an actual pic of your air box.
