When the siding was installed 20 years ago it was cut around the hose bibb. Now you have a corrugated side that will go against the wall and a flat side for the spigot to come out of that a flange will lay flat on.

As you cinch down the anchor screws it ll pull the bibb tight to the face and extrude any excess butyl.
