streaky star problem re visited

Just checked all of my subs and they have oval stars to one side.
This problem has only occurred since i rotated the focuser to suit M20 composition.
My earlier post stated that i also had a meridian flip and the streaky stars were only in the subs taken when pointing west.
I have left the focuser at the same rotation to suit m8 and now notice that regardless of a meridian flip i have streaky stars to the same half side of my image both taken at east and west.

I have done a meridian flip before and had absolutely no problems

completely lost

scope is a ed 120 with moonlite focuser
all mounted on an eq6 pro mount
