The ferrule is rotatable within a predetermined range with respect to the housing. The housing includes an arcuate slot having end edges and the ferrule includes a protrusion received in the slot. The protrusion is movable between the end edges to define the predetermined range of rotation of the ferrule. The ferrule includes an inlet end defining an inlet centerline and a body bent at an acute angle with respect to the inlet centerline.
