The easiest/broadest couloir on the E Face tops out south of the summit. The summit block itself isn't technical on the S side, but there is a buttress between the top of the couloir and the summit. The standard route traverses down right/east through a weakness on the east side of this buttress.
Does your route climb the aforementioned couloir and then directly up the south side of the buttress? Or did you climb one of the 2 towers N of the summit?

Which couloir/summit?Hi,

Thanks!
