Well guys, not to put a negative spin on all of these fine efforts, but,

, all of these hoses are not designed to be twisted, poked and excessively stretched. I'm sure you can get the hose on, but I wouldn't bet much on the life expectancy of that item, especially if I were in a desert (or other hot place) and it was usder max pressure and heat. If you must use this type of repair, just cut 1/4 or 3/16 inch (or a bit more if you must) off the bypass outlet in the head with a hacksaw. Not elegant surely, but it will not harm anything and hose replacement will be a whole lot easier for you and less mechanically stressful for the little hose that could...
