Parametric modeler - BELL end type - Adjusting the way it looks

I don't see 'how to' do this so thought I would check.  Using the parametric modeler for the pipe type using a BELL end type.  Seems I can only get a "boxy" look rather than being able to give it a 'bell look'.  Attached is a pic showing the boxy end of the parametric modeler, and beside it is some line work showing how I would rather get the look to be.

I was working in 2012, so decided to check in 2013 as well, and it appears that I can't do any BELL end type in the parameteric modeler.  So what is the "conventional wisdom" now?  Do we only do BELL end types as block based?

I have determined that the spec where I had a BELL end type was duplicated out of another catalog.  Though the parametric modeler may have been used, the BELL end type is not a listed graphic to dimension and the original BELL pipe type must have used Pipe(SW/FPT, MPT at port 2) as the basis for the geometry.
