Fitment Issue: Macht Schnell stage 2 intake

Please advise if you had a similar issue or suggestions.

I have a Macht Schnell Stage 2 intake system.The factory elbow which connects the factory style airbox to the radiator/fan, constantly pops out of alignment. The connection is compromised and air escapes. I have adjusted the elbow with a flathead but the problem continues.

Thinking to loosen all bolts holding the intake and readjust the connections while adding few clamps. The factory did not use clamps on that elbow so I doubt it needs it.

Other option is to buy a new oem intake elbow that maybe will be firmer since the stock has 52k on it .
