It's actually
A_CustomMissile. A_FireCustomMissile is for weapons, A_CustomMissile is for monsters and other actors.
A_CustomMissile (missiletype, spawnheight, spawnofs_horiz, angle, flags, pitch)

Note: you need to use CMF_AIMDIRECTION(or add 2 to flags) for pitch to actually take any effect. This, however, rises a problem - the monster will stop accounting for the height difference between you and him, so if you stay on a different elevation all his shots will safely pass below/above you.
You could of use CMF_OFFSETPITCH(32), but surprise - it's not supported by zandyzanzan.
