Default Ford Racing engine bar

Ok I bought one used recently. My car is in storage so I cant put it on now. It appears that it may be slightly torqued or bent. When it sits flat it leans twoards the front. Is this normal?Any help would be appreciated. I had one before but I can't remember...

Forward leaning is normal.
It just cant be bent unless
the mustang it was previously
attached to was in a major crushed
can type of accident.

Unless uncle eddie has been using it as a pry bar.
Is the powdercoating damaged. That would show
signs of damage before the metal actually started to bend.
If it looks like it leans symmetrically, its all OK.
