I bet it somehow connected with vector coordinates approximation.

Note that you can integrate the engine when it's pointing in the wrong direction and when you burn it afterwards the flame is pointing in the wrong direction too. It's attachment point rotating. Please note also that Truss1to3used in this scenario is rotated 60 degrees before integration(dunno why). So we have sloped a.p. rotated before module's integration. And then the slope was translated to a fuel tank a.p.

Here's the troublesome AP:
Note the rotation vector which is obviously incorrect.

Confirmed. Defining rotation vector of any attachment point as [-0.0043,-0.0025,1] makes anything attached to it to rotate in the same manner.

OBS construction continues:
The facility is mostly operational, only support systems are still off, main frame is almost completed. It's ready to accept its crew.
P.S. It would have been great to have docking port connected with animation for this facility - it could use a nice retractable docking mast. I don't ask for anything, just dreaming
