How to change pipe network leader location to bottom of pipe in profile view?

Good morning, I'm currently in the process of using all the tools within AutoCAD Civil 3d and I recently created a pipe network and cut a profile view. One of the issues I'm encountering is labeling the pipe network in profile view. I recently created a style with the intent of labeling the pipe network invert directly at the invert location however I noticed that regardless of how I try to modify the anchor point and Y dimension of the text style the leader is always attached to the centerline of the pipe and centerline of the structure (See Attached). I would like to know if anyone has encountered this issue and what would be a possible solution. 

 

Thank you!

I came across this thread (Below) which is spot on with the issue I'm encountering and Ive tried using the expressions in the Label Style "Y Offset:" IF({Pipe Slope}<0,-(({Drop Across Span}/2)/{Drawing Scale Conversion})*10,(({Drop Across Span}/2)/{Drawing Scale Conversion})*10)

 

However I keep receiving an "INVALID INPUT" error message. I would like to know if anyone knows a workaround to this.
