Passeger side tube doesn't fit properly. It crushes the tube in on itself

I had thought that I fixed mine to sit properly. I looked again yesterday and noticed it was crushing the tube as well. So i unscrewed the breather hose from the manifold and just let it sit loose on top of where it would screw. it repositions itself where it doesnt crush the tube, so im just going to leave it like that. Figure its not going to cause any harm not being screwed down, it may jump around, but only a little...
