73 ES fuel injectors 1800

Replaced injector seals this weekend and in the process loosened the press fit on the small piece of hose located at the top of one of the injectors. I now have a small leak when I activate the fuel pump without starting the engine. Does not leak once the engine starts.

Is it acceptable to put a hose clamp over the metal cup holding the hose in place or is it best to remove the old hose and metal cup and use a new piece of hose and a fuel injection hose clamp as is done where the hose connects to the fuel rail?



Thanks in advance fro your help
