Maybe I'm missing it, but from the pics you posted it doesn't look like the same arrangement as the pics that started this thread. Maybe those were only used in testing like the Ferrari's?

Hypocrisy has no limits around here!

But its different for Ferrari!!! Because...well it is! Ferrari are the ones who have been caught with 780 pages of data of another car and lying to stewards, they must be cheating every other time too.wait....

Agreed. I thought you were on the other side, thus my confusion. But I think from those pics the exhaust is flush with the bodywork.

It's a non-issue, just as Ferrari's "test" configuration is now a non-issue, just as McLaren using '08 spec wings in "test" configuration is/was a non-issue (not that anyone ever thought that, but that's my point).
