Galvanized pipe, not sure what to do?
The pipe drains fine although the angle is slightly the wrong
direction. If I choose not to replace, the issue is where the pipe
comes out of the wall. Need it to be at least 5 inched to the left.

I'd base the course of action on whether that galvanized pipe is
obstructed. Does the sink drain rapidly ? Can you get a wire hanger
thru there ?
If it seems healthy I'd leave it alone. If it's a problem right now,
that is, water doesn't drain, it's probably because the galv. pipe is
corroded down to where only a trickle of water can pass.
I'm pretty handy but I'd call a plumber cause of the junction of that
pipe with what probably is an iron stack, assuming it's an old house.
