Unfortunately not - the hose fits through the bracket and has a stepped end that stops it from going beyond the normal position. Additionally, I have no method of creating the required flared end for the metal pipe (though I think my cousin might have a tool for that ... but I'm not sure whether it's the right version as there are many different types of flare, I gather).
I am wondering whether I'll have to cut through the metal section of hose to be able to get some plus gas up from the 'inside' and try to shift it that way ... but it's high risk.
Thanks anyway.
