The 4 X 3 Closet EL is probably all there is.
He probably specified a 4" closet flange because
that is the rule in their code.
Do you have room after the EL to put in a 3 X 2
San TEE? That would give you the side inlet
for the 2" vent and I should think it would be
acceptable. The TEE can even be turned up 45 deg
to comply with the requirement that TEE's not be
laid on their side.
