one of the is one than the other. Plumber said this is necessary to allow moisture to drain back into the boiler.

    Your plumber is correct. Ideally the header is pitched toward the equalizer which is connected to the return at the bottom of the boiler, to drain condensate from the header.

    Lest see some pictures from farther back of the piping above and around the boiler. The steam supply i suspect should have been done another way.
