Gravity pipe network headwall rotation

Hi!
I made some custom headwall in part builder. But I have an issue. The headwall is always horizontal, but in real life the headwall has the same slope as the connected pipe (yellow headwall). Can I somehow rotate the headwall (blue headwall) in the model as a structure to have the same slope as the pipe?

Thanks for your help!

Unfortunately I dont think this is possible.  Headwalls (as well as end sections) are considered structures, and are always set vertically.  Unfortunately, I'm not sure of the steps required to give it a slope, you could try some sort of pipe, but I dont know how you would include the angle cuts on it

You would have to incorporate a slope to the part builder geometry to 'tilt' the end section graphically.  Likely more effort than its worth.
