An assembly (64) is provided for an aircraft propulsion system (20). This assembly (64) includes a center body (66), a scarfed inlet structure (58) and an inlet passage (68). The scarfed inlet structure (58) extends circumferentially about the center body (66). The inlet passage (58) is radially between and formed by at least the center body (66) and the scarfed inlet structure (58). A first component of the assembly (64) is configured to rotate about an axis (108) relative to a second component of the assembly (64) between: (A) a first position where a metering portion (72) of the inlet passage (68) has a first area (74A); and (B) a second position where the metering portion (72) has a second area (74B). The first component is one of the center body (66) or the scarfed inlet structure (58), and the second component is the other one of the center body (66) or the scarfed inlet structure (58).
