Re-fitting stock air box, help needed!

Hi all,

Had an AFE intake on the car fitted, have removed it without issue.

Went to re-fit the standard airbox and filter and ran into a hurdle!
The rear intake hose wont line up with the opening on the box, and when forcing it to 'line up' it almost seems like the rubber hose itself is not long enough to reach the the air box (i.e. it just keeps slipping off and cant get it on far enough over the opening to clamp it down) Hope that makes sense? It's like that rear hose needs to be an inch longer...

Has anyone ran into this or can give any advice?

Have attempted to do this all from the top of the engine bay, wouldn't of thought I'd need to get the car on a hoist?

thanks!
