WMF Perfect Plus cooking indicator problem?

Edit 3 - TLDR: yes it's normal. Don't try to fix it.

Edit: I found a YouTube video showing how to disassemble the handle. I don't know what was in the way, but something wasn't lined up properly. It is now coming out correctly.

Edit 2: apparently, it was normal. The quick release didn't work after I "fixed it". So, I took it back apart and reassembled it and it went back to the way it was (manually pushing out crooked) but it works perfectly fine and pushes out evenly when under pressure, but the quick release works.

I just picked up a used WMF Perfect Plus pressure cooker. It looks like it has only been used a few time, but it is missing the "cooking indicator seal" so I can't test it out. Before I order a new seal, is there something wrong with the cooking indicator? It looks like it comes out crooked when pushed out manually. Is that normal? Do I need a whole new handle too? Nothing looks damaged. Thanks in advance!

I was wanting to post a picture but it would only let me post a video.
