The orange tinge may have been a bit of prismatic atmospheric dispersion. If you looked closely there probably was a bit of a blue tinge on the opposite of the planet as well. We’re you viewing Jupiter at lower altitudes say 20 to 40 degrees ? If so, this is a common phenomena
Collimation advice
You will need a Cheshire with cross hair to do the secondary first and the primary last
The laser is only used to do a final alignment of the primary and a check or tweak of both
