New gear arriving - OAG Question

Well it's been 3 months of clouds so I've been spending my time saving and shopping and am finally going mono after 3 years. I've just received my new camera, 2600mm Pro and Antlia 3nm Filters. I've also upgraded my scope which arrives today, the Askar 107 PHQ. I'm very interested to see the performance first hand of this system.

I currently use guidescope+cam but am thinking about adding an OAG to this system. The rear connection of the scope takes a variety of options down to 48mm. With the 2600mm and 36mm 7 position filterwheel am I correct in thinking that the ZWO OAG-L is the right one to use for the larger aperture? I have a concern that it appears the OAG-L doesn't allow itself to be rotated so you can't locate guide stars separate to framing of camera? The scope itself allows full 360 degree rotation of the image train.

Anyone with experience of the OAG-L?
