Collapsed Intake Hose

This is a picture of my intake hose. It looks like maybe I tightened it up too hard or something and the hose collapsed. Is this hose ruined now? Anyone that upgraded intake lines have an extra laying around? I plan to update my intake hoses sometime but not until the engine has to come out for other reasons.

Thanks, Matt

That pipe is plastic, you can unscrew clamps, remove

plastic pipe, inspect, adjust, and re-install ... It doesn't look that bad to me, I suppose a little heat may make it easier to adjust when off, if needed.

Doesn't appear to be that bad in the pic to me, maybe others will chime in.

There should be a steel ring on the inside of the plastic hose that should prevent this.
Is this one still there?

Thanks Scot, I didn't even take it off yet, my garage is too cold the last couple days to go out there!
