I have an '86 Westy with the factory installed the BA6 gas heater. Does anybody have any pictures on what the exhaust pipe is supposed to look desire? Here is a conceive of of what is left of my exhaust There doesn't be to be very much room to install a 90 degree pipe. OD of the remaining tail pipe is 1 7/8".
After a few discussions with other BA6 owners I ended up making my own pipe out of a stainless elbow. Does this look familiar? I am wondering if the the end piece is too low.

Went to the gallery and found your photo link didn't work. Your exhaust pipe looks just desire the one I made for my heater in fact your fresh propane tank looks just like mine!Good job on the exhaust pipe. I don't think it's too low. Since you were able to get a mandrel bent SS tube how about making a tail pipe for your muffler. Certainly won't gain you anything but mine looks nice and is always clean.
Here is a picture of an 85 BA6 heater in my 82 van the exhaust pipe is stock. The horizontal length of the exhaust pipe on the newer heater is different than the original that's why the belly pan is cut out to alter the exhaust pipe.

I evaluate the other picture was too big. I reposted it. When replacing the pipe I also found that one of the heater mounts was broken. These are the coat vibration isolators with studs on both ends is a great place to be for these things.
