They seem like they are the same results.

If it doesn't funnel then what should it do? I took my 2000 cavalier to a shop because it was always overheating, the first thing they did was open the reserve, looked in, and said it wasn't making a tornado so that meant the pump was broken. :) Lol!
Here's a perfect example of a lying mechanic. That shop told me they didn't know why the dealer couldn't decode it because it was such a simple problem.
But yeah I do make pretty stupid statements. Not gonna argue with that.

That work in "old-fashioned" cars that have a tank on the top of the radiator, not so much when the pressure cap is down line. And you should never see swirling in the "over flow" tank, unless this is a 2006-early 2007 with a surge tank.

So really there’s no update needed my car runs normal now. But here it is:
Sorry for the delay. My phone’s motherboard is permanently broken now (it was getting old anyway) so I have a new one with NO photos of my manifold now! But the original exhaust manifold was rusting and had a huge crack in the Y near where it connects to the cat. It seemed like it should have fell apart in half but it was holding together somehow. Probably with rust because it was really heckin rusty.
But now there’s a shiny new one in there. My air filter is really rattly so I have to reseat it but otherwise no problems.
My cat was in good shape. My fuel pump has a small leak but is technically still good. The shop found no other leaks. And my engine sounds normal now.
