Air Filter Oil Return pip

I am trying to locate an oil leak near the front right of my engine. The pipe that connects to the bottom of the air filter and then down to the oil pan really wobbles. I have cleaned the area up and am going to be trying to monitor where the oil is coming from.

But I am also curious how much this pipe should wobble. I would imagine that it needs some bend to make sure that it connects into the airfilter hose but this thing is wobbling a good 1/4" in each direction. It is hard for me to imagine how the bottom connection into the oil pan could possible be secure with this much wobbling. Do your oil return pipes wobble a lot?

Thanks for your help,
Sasha


PS A previous owner did the RTV over the turbo drain pipe fix..
