How far down to the block is the transmission dipstick tube bracket supposed to be?

On the 1996 K1500 6.5 diesel, I have 2 nuts underneath it. Is this correct?

If this is in the wrong place, Please feel free to move it. Couldn't decide between here and transmissions

I'm guessing there is enough wiggle that you could push the tube down regardless.

Thanks
